Process Heat Collectors State of the Art within Task 33/IV (Weiss/Rommel 2008)
Approximately 128 GWth, the equivalent of 183 million square meters, of solar thermal collectorswere installed by the year 2006 worldwide (Weiss et al., 2008). Until now, the widespread use of solarthermal applications has focused almost exclusively on swimming pools and residential domestichot water preparation and space heating.

IEA EBC Annex 68: Indoor Air Quality Design and Control in Low Energy Residential Buildings
In this project, the scientific basis and data for a coupled calculation and evaluation of indoor air quality and energy efficiency of residential buildings were developed. Assessment metrics and detailed air pollutant models were developed and integrated into the building simulation to derive guidance for the planning and operation of energy-efficient residential buildings.
IEA EBC Annex 82: Energy flexible buildings towards resilient low carbon energy systems
In the future, buildings and building clusters should be able to provide energy flexibility services for different types of energy systems. The project increases knowledge about the obstacles and motivation for the stakeholders involved. Their constructive engagement is a key to making the energy flexibility of buildings a value for the resilience of future energy networks.
IEA HPT Annex 58: High-Temperature Heat Pumps
Industrial heat pumps, especially high temperature heat pumps with useful temperatures higher than 100°C, are a central element in the future energy system. In order to increase the application of high temperature heat pumps in industry, this project will provide an overview of the technological possibilities up to the procurement process of high temperature heat pumps. This should increase the understanding of the technology and its potential and reduce existing market barriers.
International Collaboration for ensuring Secure and Sustainable Critical Minerals in Clean Energy Technologies
13 May 2022, 13:00 - 16:00 (CET)
Online
This webinar of the IEA Experts’ Group on R&D Priority-setting and Evaluation (EGRD) aimed at identifying a number of crucial research activities related to critical minerals, the landscape of international collaboration to ensure a secure and sustainable development and how IEA TCPs may contribute to raising global knowledge around certain clean energy technologies.
IEA HPT Annex 54: Heat pump systems with low GWP refrigerants
The aim of the project was to investigate the current situation in the area of refrigerants with a low global warming potential ("low-GWP"). The focus of the national project lies on the current refrigerant application situation and on an outlook until 2030 on the availability of components and systems.
IEA AFC Annex 34: Fuel Cells for Transportation (Working period 2019 - 2022)
The overall objective of the project is the advancement of fuel cells in transportation applications. To ensure a comprehensive penetration of the automotive market, the focus will be laid on the cost-reduction potential of fuel cell components and systems including hydrogen storage, the hydrogen infrastructure and fuel cell vehicles in public transportation as well as fuel cell powered utility vehicles.
IEA HPT Annex 57: Showing flexibility benefits through heat pump implementation in multi-vector energy systems and thermal networks
This project analyzes the future implementation of heat pumps in multi-vector energy systems and thermal networks. This is intended to increase flexibility and to use it for various applications, e.g. for system services or to participate in different electricity markets. Using international case studies, influencing factors and potentials for flexibility options will be evaluated and suitable business models will be derived.
IEA EBC Annex 79: Occupant-Centric Building Design and Operation
The IEA EBC Annex 79 aims to provide new insights into comfort-related occupant behaviour in buildings and its impact on building energy performance as well as occupant-centric building design and operation.
IEA HPT Annex 55: Comfort and Climate Box – Speeding up market development for integrating heat pumps and storage packages
In the IEA HPT Annex 55, heat pumps with integrated thermal/electrical storage systems for existing buildings that are as close to the market as possible were developed. Furthermore, measures to accelerate market development have been worked out.
IEA EBC Annex 84: Demand Management of Buildings in Thermal Networks
The concept of demand-side management (DSM) in buildings to reduce peak loads in the grid is well established in the power sector. The same concept can be applied to shift thermal loads in buildings connected to thermal networks. This project addresses the topic of demand response in buildings, focusing on the collection of case studies, technologies and collaboration models.
IEA EBC Annex 83 - Positive Energy Districts
A positive energy district (PED) is an urban area/neighbourhood that is able to generate more energy than it consumes and is agile/flexible enough to respond to energy market fluctuations. This is where the IEA-Annex 83 and commissioned leading Austrian research institutions come in to collect, systematise, synthesise and process the knowledge and experience of the international scientific community on PEDs in a form that is understandable for practitioners.
