Building automation can significantly reduce CO2 emissions. An analysis of market and provider structures should improve the spread of digital building technology.
The conference brings together the European business community. Borderstep Director Prof. Dr. Klaus Fichter is co-chair for the track Innovation for Sustainability, Circularity and Green-tech. Scientists are invited to submit their papers.
According to the motto "Science with Impact", Borderstep makes its research results available to the public - also as free events.
The aim of the project was to analyze in which areas hydrogen appears to be useful for achieving the climate targets and how directional certainty can be created.
Radical system innovations are slow to transform markets. Borderstep investigated how such processes can be accelerated by an activating state.
The project aims to promote understanding of the need for rapid action against climate change and to draw attention to the possibilities of using heat pumps.
The project, which was funded by the BMBF under the research priority "Economics of Climate Change", aimed to determine whether digitisation will lead to more or less climate protection overall.
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.
The project aimed to develop an overall political concept for social change processes towards a Green Economy. Success factors for transformation processes were derived from case studies.
ProSHAPE developed a control approach and business models that enable decentralized energy management in quarters.
With DESTINI, the solar thermal blind is being implemented for the first time in the largest European innovation quarter near Frankfurt a.M. The Borderstep Institute is supporting the project.
The project analysed the structural change in the automotive industry triggered by globalisation, digitalisation and climate protection.
Radical system innovations only slowly lead to the transformation of markets. The project investigated how such processes can be accelerated by an activating state.
In order to achieve ambitious environmental goals, an additional push of environmental innovations is needed. The aim was to develop strategies for promoting environmental innovations.
Goal of the climate technology study was to develop an overview of German products, services, cooperation in the climate adaptation and mitigation market.
The project’s aim was to study the conditions and factors involved in the diffusion processes of sustainable innovations, as well as to study the strategies which led to success.
The transformation to a Green Economy requires environmental innovations in a wide range of industries. These innovations play a key role.
