IEA IETS Task 11: Industrial Biorefineries (Working period 2022-2024)
Biorefineries producing a portfolio of biobased products or bioenergy are the backbone of the growing bioeconomy. IEA IETS Task 11 aims to minimize greenhouse gas emissions to net zero along different biorefinery pathways. Tools and methodologies for increasing energy efficiency and the use of renewable energies are to be summarized and disseminated to relevant target groups.

IEA PVPS Task 12: Photovoltaics (PV) Sustainability Activities (working period 2024 - 2027)
Photovoltaics (PV) is a renewable energy source that is an important technology for the energy transition. For this reason, or rather despite this, it is important to consider sustainability aspects in PV as well. End-of-life solutions in particular play an important role, as a strong increase in the number of end-of-life modules is expected in the coming years. Well-functioning recycling methods, repair possibilities or reuse options are of great importance. In this project, these existing methods and capacities in Austria are being researched and published in reports and workshops.
IEA Wind Task 51: Forecasting for the weather driven energy system (Working period 2024 - 2027)
The project aims to improve forecasting accuracy for weather-dependent energy systems to enable the efficient integration of renewable energies. The focus is on physical/statistical and machine learning-based modelling of energy production from renewable energy sources, reducing uncertainties, and enhancing the communication of forecast information to the energy sector. International collaboration within the framework of the task aims to help develop standards and best practices that advance both research and practical applications.
IEA PVPS Task 13: Reliability and Performance of Photovoltaic Systems (Work Plan 2024 - 2025)
IEA PVPS Task 13 engages in focusing the international collaboration in improving the reliability of photovoltaic systems and subsystems by collecting, analyzing and disseminating information on their technical performance and durability, providing a basis for their technical assessment, and developing practical recommendations for improving their electrical and economic output in different climatic regions.
IEA IETS Task 21: Decarbonizing industrial systems in a circular economy framework (working period 2025 - 2027)
Energy and CO2 savings through CCUS, and resource and energy efficiency through industrial symbiosis are key approaches to decarbonizing industry. The subtasks “Carbon Dioxide Capture in Industry” and “Facilitation of Industrial Symbiosis” of the IEA IETS Task 21 deal with CO2 management, legal requirements for CCUS, new value chains and associated stakeholders, technological integration in industry, tools to enable industrial symbiosis and a non-technical assessment of the status of cooperation.
IEA IETS Task 11: Industry-based Biorefineries Towards Sustainability (Working Period 2024-2026)
Industrial-scale biorefineries play a central role in the transition to a climate-neutral and integrated circular economy. The international IEA IETS Task 11 supports this development by investigating and evaluating technologies and concepts for reducing emissions and conserving resources.
IEA PVPS Task 1: Strategic PV Analysis and Outreach (Working period from 2025)
This task, which is mandatory for all countries participating in the IEA-PVPS program, has been producing global reports on photovoltaic development since 1993. In addition, content-related priorities are set, or new topics and tasks are developed, which are then sent to the ExCo for decision-making. This gives Task 1 strategic importance for the overall IEA PVPS program.
IEA Wind Task 54: Wind Energy in Cold Climates (Working period 2025 - 2029)
In order to achieve the expansion targets for renewable energies, generation plants will increasingly have to be erected at locations with more demanding framework conditions in the future. For wind energy, this means planning and operating turbines under icing conditions in many countries. The task examines and evaluates technological solutions in this environment and publishes procedural recommendations in the form of technical reports and guidelines.
IEA IETS Task 22: Climate Resilience and Energy Adaptation in Industry under Uncertainty (working period 2024 - 2026)
The main objective of this task is to promote understanding and progress in digitalization, artificial intelligence (AI), and related technologies in order to enable climate resilience (extreme weather and events) and energy adaptation (electricity, heating, and sector coupling) in energy-intensive industries. Specifically, the challenges of energy flexibility and demand response will be identified by means of surveys of Austrian stakeholders and the results presented nationally in a workshop format.
Energy R&D 2024: Public Expenditures in Austria
Public expenditure on energy research amounted to €401 million in 2024, an increase of €90 million over the previous year. New RTI initiatives, IPCEI, research infrastructure and a good mix of open-ended and thematic formats contributed to this increase. The top topics were hydrogen and energy efficiency in industry.
