TwinLight - BIM-based implementation of daylight and artificial lighting controls

A merging of trade-specific systems in an integral context, a faster applicability of new ICT-technologies, an automation of on-site commissioning of control systems and a mapping of energy data in the digital twin are to be made possible by means of transferring the control logic into the digital building model and via an open bidirectional system architecture (BIM2Control and Control2BIM).

UPTextIL - Upcycling cellulose from used textiles into high-strength filaments using spinning technology in ionic liquids

The aim of the project is to develop a process for spinning cellulose from used textiles using ionic liquids, to analyze potential impurities in this recycling material stream, and to develop strategies for their removal or avoidance during the spinning process. The project aims to lay the foundations for closing the material cycle of cellulose from used textiles.

Urban Sky - Satellite-based planning and analysis applications for climate-neutral and resilient cities

The project investigates how satellite data can support cities and municipalities (e.g. urban development, spatial energy planning, mobility transition). Based on demand and potential analyses, service concepts will be derived that integrate existing data and tools with satellite applications. The results will be presented in a study and a Space4Cities implementation roadmap.

Urban consolidation Lehen - Subproject 2: Development - intelligent E-Monitoring

In the oppositional subproject 2 technical and organisational requirements for the transformation of the innovative Smart Metering-concept will be developed. Through the connection of the application of Smart Metering with an active integration of the inhabitants over mutual communication the concept, which is planned for the key project Urban Consolidation Lehen stands out of other comparable antedated activities.

V-Form – Manufacturing unreinforced vaulted con­crete floors with variable pneumatic formworks

V-Form is working on the development of vaulted concrete floors in terms of struc­tural design and building physics, as well as on a new formwork system. Thanks to the efficient shell construction, around 70% CO2eq-emissions can be saved compared to reinforced concrete flat slabs. The reusable and variable pneumatic formwork sys­tem aims to enable the economical production of the double-curved concrete shells.

VR4UrbanDev - Virtual Reality as an innovative, digital tool for the integrative urban development of the future

Virtual reality (VR) has the potential to make complex issues more quickly comprehensible and directly tangible. In the VR4UrbanDev project, we are using this potential for energy planning processes for buildings and urban districts. On the basis of test areas, we develop methods for importing and visualising energy-related real-time data and simulation data in the VR environment.

Villach KlimaFit - Municipal Transformation Process to Achieve Climate Neutrality in Villach

The strategic framework for achieving climate neutrality has been decided in Villach and the city itself can already point to good results in its own sphere of action (buildings, photovoltaics). However, the lack of own energy and mobility operations, the type and scope of construction/investment projects (third-party projects) and the limited scope for action in strategic development topics (little land owned by the city of Villach) require the adaptation (transformation) of municipal instruments in order to implement climate neutrality holistically.

Vision4Voitsberg - Climate neutrality plan 2040 for the municipality of Voitsberg

Voitsberg aims to support the achieve­ment of national climate goals by developing a tailored roadmap that builds on existing projects and targets climate neutrality by 2040. This roadmap will be created in close collaboration with the city administration, key interest groups, and decision-makers from politics and business.
