1 Energy Research and Development in Austria Theodor Zillner

2 Energy in Austria Gross domestic energy consumption (2007: 1,419 PJ) Import dependency: 70%

3 Comprehensive Energy Strategy EU National targets SET- Plan European Strategic Energy Technology Plan renewable energy directive directive on energy end-use efficiency and energy services Energy Research strategy Renewable Energy Action Plan Energy Efficiency Strategy overall energy and climate strategy Energy efficiency Intelligent system integration Renewable energies climate target Climate Strategy

4 Austrian Policy Targets Renewables Increase the share of renewables from 23.3% (2005) to 34% by 2020 (28 % in 2007) Transport 10% share of renewables in transport by 2020 Efficiency increase of energy efficiency by 9% by 2016 compared to business as usual Scenario based on Green House Gas Reduction decrease by 16 % by 2020 based on 2005 Research expenditures 3 % of GDP by 2010 (2,73 % in 2009) Energy: triplicate public energy research expenditures (increase to 0,04 % of GDP)

5 Making the Zero Carbon Society Possible! Efficiency RES

6 Energy Research Strategy Targets goals of energy policy: security of energy supply cost effectivness environmental friendly additional goals research, technology and innovation policy attractive country for research headquaters technological and market leaderships creating jobs throuh R&D and innovation contradictory goals and win-win-situations: contradictory: cost effectivness vs. security of energy supply and sustainability Win-Win-situation: low carbon technologies - contribute to climate and energy goals and create new markets

7 Research examples

8 The Research and Technology Program Haus der Zukunft PLUS (Building of Tomorrow PLUS )

9 Building of Tomorrow Overall aims of the research programme Building of Tomorrow user and service aspects low energy solar house passive house renewable energy sources energy efficiency ecological building materials and systems renewable raw materials, building ecology comparable costs new buildings retrofitting

10 Facts and results Results and Experiences from Building of Tomorrow Haus der Zukunft ( ) More than 250 research projects 25 Mio EUR project funding 25 demonstration projects Austria has (now!) the highest density of passive houses

11 applied research, technology and components Aims: strengthen the scientific basis development or improvement of new technologies and components Topics: innovative systems for solar heating of buildings and district heating efficient solar technologies and their multifunctional and esthetical integration into buildings innovative components (e.g. heat storage, windows, solar cooling) innovative components and elements on basis of renewable materials

12 Technologies Facade-integrated solar collector for water and space heating

13 Demonstration buildings

14 Information:

15 The next step: A new thematic RTD-Programme The idea: Building of Tomorrow PLUS From Zero-Energy Energy-Buildings to PLUS-Energy-Buildings Running from Budget 35 Mio. EURO

16 PLUS means PLUS buildings as generators of energy PLUS strengthening technological leadership PLUS from the building to the settlement PLUS from single to series manufacturing PLUS visible demonstration projects PLUS intensified networking and education PLUS
