This provides the foundation for scalable, explainable FDD solutions to reduce energy consumption and emissions in the building sector.
Climate Pioneer Districts Graz (KPQ Graz): Preparation of the climate-neutral districts ÖBB Eastern Railway Station and Smart City North-West
The Climate Pioneer Districts Graz (KPQ Graz) project is preparing the development of the districts "ÖBB Eastern Railway Station" and "Smart City North-West" in Graz towards climate neutrality. Based on the lessons learned of the evaluation of the already realised district "Smart City Graz", an innovative district concept is being created for the infrastructure topics of energy, mobility, green/open space and social sustainability. The central goal of the exploration is the subsequent realization of at least one of the two pilot quarters.

Kimoni develops an AI-based tool for high-resolution analysis and assessment of Green Infrastructure for climate change adaptation. By combining satellite and geospatial data with machine learning, Kimoni provides a cost-efficient and scalable solution to comply with the EU Taxonomy and optimize climate-friendly investments.
InSite - Monitoring and evaluation of innovative demonstration buildings
In the "Stadt der Zukunft" and "Smart City Initiative" programmes, a large number of demonstration projects have been implemented in recent years. To be able to evaluate the developed innovations in a uniform and comparable form and to make the knowledge gained accessible to implementers, InSite subjects 10 selected objects from these programmes to energy and ecological monitoring as well as sociological surveys over a period of 24 months. The interpreted results are publicly available as a published study and as an interactive online platform.
Update Prunerstraße - Demonstrative building Prunerstraße 5: climate-neutral transformation of a space programme and an existing building
Together with the Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft (BIG), the University of Art Linz (KUL) aims to develop Prunerstraße 5 into a landmark project that meets the socially relevant demands of a university and at the same time sets progressive standards in the requirements determination, transformation, and sustainable development of existing buildings.
Smart Dag - smart and climate-neutral renovation of the Dag Hammarskjöld housing estate
For a smart and sustainable renovation of the Dag Hammarskjöld housing estate in the city of Klagenfurt, a residential area from the 1950/1960s, the existing housing stock (buildings, green and open space, social structure) will be analysed and assessed based on the "Quartier &Wir" guide. The results are the basis for the launch of an architectural competition. The residents of the area who still live on site and the housing development agency of the department of the provincial Carinthian Government are involved in the feasibility study. The aim is to transfer the results of the study to other renovation projects and thus contribute to achieving the city of Klagenfurt's climate goals.
ModularHeatNet
The aim of the project is to support Ottensheim in phasing out fossil fuels and developing a "climate-neutral" heat supply. As a result, the community will receive a solid decision-making basis based on the technical, economic, organizational, and environmental comparison of the examined heat supply approaches.
K3 - Climate-neutral Klagenfurt Clinic
As part of Klagenfurt on Lake Wörthersee's climate neutrality ambitions, the focus is on the development of climate-neutral districts with a wide variety of functions and uses in the city area. In collaboration with the state hospital operating company - KABEG, a climate neutrality roadmap for the Klagenfurt clinic district is being developed with scientific support from JOANNEUM RESEARCH Forschungsgesellschaft mbH.
MasSan - Feasibility study of serial renovation concepts & models in Austria
Feasibility study to present and analyze the framework conditions and potential of serial renovations of large-volume buildings. The findings from the national pilot projects as well as the international / German projects and models are extracted and checked for their feasibility in the Austrian context and the requirements are prepared.
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.
crowd2raum - Participatory co-financing models for socially innovative and sustainable reactivation for vacancies
As part of the exploratory project "crowd2raum", existing funding and support programmes are being combined with existing crowdfunding mechanisms (imGrätzl.at/WeLocally.at platform) to create a co-financing model for vacancy activation. This will be developed and tested in practice through the activation of four vacant spaces in the base zone in the defined pilot areas in Vienna and Graz.
