BIOCHARm - Assessing the Potential of Biochar in Construction as a Contribution to Climate Neutrality
The project investigates the potential and limits of the use of biochar in the Austrian construction sector. The participating organisations gain valuable insights into the availability and suitability of biogenic material flows, the possible uses of biochar and the possibility of storing atmospheric carbon in the construction sector.
BIPV-Booster - Game changer for façade-integrated PV systems: Development of proof-free constructions regarding fire protection
The central result of the project will be the development of a catalogue of “proof-free constructions” with regard to fire protection for façade-integrated photovoltaic systems, particularly for the more difficult case of high-rise buildings. These constructions will be defined in the project and tested in fire tests. The fire tests are to be supplemented by electrical and material-related module tests before and after the fire tests.
AI4FM - Artificial Intelligence for Facility Management
AI-based anomaly and fault detection in buildings. Digital twins of buildings with simulation models for testing and optimizing rule-based fault detection methods. Mining of the recorded time-series data from existing Building Management Systems to train Machine Learning models for fault detection.
GreenGEO - Data-based integration of climate change adaptation measures into spatial planning
Green and blue infrastructure (GBI) is a key instrument in the fight against climate change. Nevertheless, deciding where and in what form it should be used most effectively remains a challenge in spatial planning practice. The development of a digital model that links location-specific climate risk data with suitable GBI measure proposals will make this much easier and more objective.
ReAssuRe – risk management for re-use of construction components and building technology by non-destructive on-site testing procedures
Risk assessment and insurability is essential for the re-use of functional components in buildings. In the best case, properties of components can be examined before they are removed from the donor building. ReAssuRe identifies suitable on-site testing procedures and establishes a network for the quality assurance of re-use components.

StirliQ+ Component development of the expansion Stirling generator with supercritical fluid as working & lubrication medium
Technical research and further development of details or components of the novel StirliQ engine, which has the potential to overcome the technical hurdles of conventional Stirling engines. On the basis of simulations as well as a laboratory plant, a narrowing down of the process parameters with regard to a resilient pre-dimension of apparatus components is carried out.
GREEN Stone: development of a cement-free concrete with recycled content for applications in landscaping
The Green Stone project aims to develop geopolymer concrete with recycled materials in order to reduce the consumption of non-renewable resources and replace the cement content with alternative binders. The landscaping industry in particular requires lightweight, durable and weather-resistant materials.
BIM.sustAIn - Artificial Intelligence to enhance sustainability in BIM projects
The construction sector faces growing challenges in meeting sustainability requirements, particularly during early project phases where key decisions on materials, construction methods, and energy concepts are made. This project aims to leverage AI and BIM to optimize sustainability assessments by providing precise CO₂ balance forecasts and material suggestions. The innovative approach reduces manual effort and supports the implementation of climate-neutral construction, contributing significantly to Austria’s climate goals.
FlexHP - AI-supported control models for optimising the flexibility of heat pumps to reduce the load on the electricity grid
Development of a new type of energy management system for heat pumps that enables methods for intelligent heat pump operation and thus maximises flexibility. This requires forecast-based models for control that utilise technologies such as machine learning.
