• AnergieUrban – Leuchttürme

  The implementation of the energy and heat transition in existing urban areas requires innovative solutions. Based on real construction projects, the legal, organisational, and socio-economic framework conditions that need to be created to facilitate the best possible use of geothermal energy in the form of decentralised anergy networks in urban areas are examined.

• Support for the development of a national R&D roadmap for geothermal energy in Austria (GeoMap)

  With the participation of representatives from research, business and society, a national geothermal R&D roadmap is to be aligned with the current challenges and objectives for the future of energy. In a multi-stage, participatory process, the status quo, current trends and drivers are identified and the necessary research topics and priorities in the field of geothermal energy are addressed.

• IEA Clean Energy, Education and Empowerment

  The Clean Energy, Education and Empowerment (C3E) is a Technology Collaboration Programme of the IEA. C3E aims to build a community of women leaders in the field of clean energy across diverse sectors; create a framework for co-operation and information sharing among participating countries; and share best practices for effective strategies to advance women in the clean energy field.

• ÖGUT in the IEA experts group "R&D priority setting and evaluation" (EGRD)

  The IEA expert group F&E priority settings and evaluation (EGRD) was initiated by the commitee for energy research and technology (CERT) with the goal of developing and spreading analytical approaches for the energy-technology-analysis, the F&E priority setting and the assessment of the use of FTI policies.

• Substantive support in the strategy process „Dialog Energiezukunft 2050“ („Future Energy Dialogue 2050“)

  In cooperation with representatives from research, the economy and society, future energy research objectives should be oriented around current challenges and targets for the future of energy.

• Event series „Highlights of Energy Research“

  The event series “Highlights of Energy Research“ has been initiated by the BMVIT aiming to create a common platform for experts and stakeholders involved in relevant research areas.

• Service Providers in Energy Efficiency and Contracting Austria

  In 2004 six OEGUT members (Axima Gebäudetechnik, CONNESS, Elektrizitätswerk Wels, MCE-BIS GmbH, ekostrom AG, VA Tech Elin EBG) were brought together under the title "Dachverband der Einsparcontractoren" (umbrella organisation for (energy) saving contractors) to increase awareness of contracting possibilities in Austria, to push quality assurance and to improve market transparency. The general goal: save energy, increase energy efficiency.
