Smart Grids Week Salzburg 2013
ERA-NET COFUND Smart Cities and Communities (2014 - 2019)
Smart Cities and Communities have been identified as key to achieving the energy efficiency targets for 2020 and 2050. The main objective of this ERA-NET COFUND is to stimulate successful practice and facilitate replicability within Smart Cities and Communities implementation projects and also across projects in order to achieve a technological shift in the current energy system and provide smart and integrated solutions for technology, government and society.
Working Party on End-Use Technologies (EUWP)
The International Energy Agency (IEA) Working Party on Energy End-Use Technologies, often referred to as End-Use Working Party (EUWP), has been in the advisory council for the Committee on Energy Research and Technology (CERT) in the area of end-use energy technologies since 1981. It also functions as reference for questions on end-use energy within the IEA Secretariat.
Joint Call for RDI projects on Integrated Regional Energy Systems
ERA-Net Smart Energy Systems (SES) will launch its first joint call for RDI projects on Integrated Regional Energy Systems with a budget of approximately 30 Mio Euro.
Smart Cities Network Austria
The Smart Cities Network Austria aims to strengthen this approach and supports and connects those pioneer cities with a strong commitment to smart city concept implementation and future-oriented climate change adaptation.
Smart Grids Week - Graz 2014
Model region for Smart Grids in Salzburg
To reach the objectives of the Austrian energy- and environmental policy the extension of electric vehicle network and an increase of the share of renewable energies at the energy supply to 34 % (today 15 %) until 2020 are necessary. For the integration of electric vehicles and a higher share of renewable energies, Smart Grids will become a key element for a future energy supply.
IEA Cross-sectional issues
There are technology-overlapping technology collaboration programmes and committees in the IEA.
IEA Working Party on Fossil Fuels (WPFF)
The Working Party on Fossil Fuels (WPFF) is the advisory council for the IEA Committee on Energy Research and Technology (CERT) for the field of fossil fuels.
Climate-neutral cities and communities
Nine Austrian cities are currently working on their FIT4UrbanMission projects. In the city portraits, they reveal which focus they want to set in terms of climate neutrality for their city and what special challenges they are facing.
The accompanying process of the FIT4UrbanMission
To face the diverse challenges of climate change together, the available and functional solutions must be made accessible to everyone. Therefore, Austria relies on a joint approach.
Mission
Until the mid 1970‘s energy supply policy was a side issue for the industrialized nations: all the energy services needed could be provided with the fossil sources of energy available in the market.The oil crisis in October 1973 was a turning-point in national and international energy policies – for the first time the extent of dependence on the oil-exporting countries was revealed, and the security of the supply of energy in future seemed to be in jeopardy.
Visualisation of IEA TCPs
International activities for the energy supply of the future are taking place within the framework of IEA's technology cooperation. Visualisations based on a graph database show the extensive activities of the individual technology cooperation programmes (TCPs). The collaborations of countries on individual topics were made clearly visible, too.
Mission
Energy Systems of Tomorrow
"Energy Systems of Tomorrow" focuses on the development of new technologies and concepts for a flexible and efficient energy system based on renewable energy sources.
FIT4Urban Mission
Nine cities, Austria's pioneers, are setting out together to become climate-neutral. The Ministry of Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology (BMK) supports these nine cities in building up knowledge about climate neutrality and in improving and developing strategies for implementation measures through a targeted funding scheme.
