The goal of the GW-Ruhr project is to use the existing mining infrastructure in the Ruhr region for a more climate-friendly energy provision.

SmallCAN can be used to considerably simplify the automated operation of buildings.

The project is accompanying the first construction phase of an energy-plus housing scheme being constructed in Berlin Adlershof.

Solutions for the use of low-exergy systems are being developed for the heat supply of existing multi-family houses.

Development of a LowEx multi-line network capable of integrating different local energy sources at different temperature levels.

Evaluation of various PCM systems in buildings during actual, long-term operation.

New coatings for flanges of offshore wind turbines are to provide lasting protection against corrosion.

Foundation piles with absorber arrays extract heat from the ground in winter and serve as a cooling source in summer.

In this project, researchers want to find out how an increasing number of decentralised heat generators affect the network hydraulics.
