The Bitkom Building Survey analyzes how digital technologies - e.g. building automation - can contribute to reducing emissions in the building sector.
More than 50 partners were working together on the northeast German model region for smart energy, as part of the collaborative WindNODE project.
The ArKol research project was developing novel thermal solar collectors for use in building facades. Borderstep supported the project consortium on behalf of Fraunhofer ISE.
ProSHAPE developed a control approach and business models that enable decentralized energy management in quarters.
With the support of artificial intelligence, it should be possible in future to plan and operate data centres in the Frankfurt area in such a way that negative effects on the environment are reduced.
The overall objective of the project is to develop and demonstrate an energy-efficient, standardised data center with liquid-cooled servers in which the waste heat is converted into cold.
Climate protection and supply security will play a vital role in the future of energy supply. The dye-sensitized solar cell, an innovative new solar cell technology, is giving rise to new applications.
