Project insights: Research for the energy transition
Determining the potential of industrial waste heat in heating networks
In the NENIA project, a Germany-wide waste heat cadastre of all industrial sites will be created for the first tim.
more"Three percent project" makes municipal neighborhoods more energy efficient
Until now, only about one per cent of the existing building stock in Germany is refurbished every year.
moreCorrosion in hydraulic systems
With this research project, corrosion processes are being investigated in heating and cooling systems.
moreModular planning tool for cities and districts
A modular, integrated energy system model is being developed to help municipalities and urban planners implement climate protection measures.
moreNetworked neighborhoods for the Wolfsburg area of the future
In this project, the implementation of energy-efficient district concepts in systemically interlinked districts is being investigated.
morePlanning and optimally operating building energy systems
In the WaveSave project, planning and optimisation tools for building energy systems are being developed for supplying decentralised electricity.
moreLeveraging cross-sectoral potential for utilising surplus electricity
In this project, the various potential for the exploitation of local and regional surplus electricity in north-eastern Germany is being investigated.
moreThe campus for the Technical University of Braunschweig is to become climate-neutral
During the next three years a multi-dimensional refurbishment concept for optimising the campus’s energy efficiency will be implemented.
moreCondition assessment of heating networks with volatile operating modes
The integration of volatile, renewable heat sources leads to an increased load on the materials in district heating networks.
