Energies

In the “smood® — smart neighborhood” project, sixteen companies, four research institutions and an association have been working together, with the scientific support of Fraunhofer, on the future of energy-related renovation measures over the past few years. Covering everything from digitalized planning processes and innovative district storage systems for electricity and heat to intelligent control and operational management solutions, the project aims to ensure that existing district facilities are ready for the energy transition — and that tenants benefit from lower costs of living as a result.

The focus of ISH - The world’s leading trade fair HVAC + Water, from 13 to 17 March 2023, is on marketable solutions for a sustainable future. Currently, the organisers are expecting around 2,000 companies to present their solutions for renewable sources of energy, sustainable water usage and clean air at the leading international trade event for the HVAC and water sector.

Green Deal, life-giving air or the hygiene trend in the bathroom – the first digital edition of ISH, the world’s leading trade fair for HVAC + Water, put the spotlight on themes of social, political and economic importance. A total of 373 companies presented their innovative products at ISH digital 2021.

Against the background of the Covid-19 pandemic, the world’s leading trade fair for water, heating and air-conditioning will bring the sanitation and HVAC sector together online from 22 to 26 March 2021. The aim: to link exhibitors, visitors, experts and journalists for five days, to offer high-grade content and to present a comprehensive programme of events.

Researchers from the Technische Universität (TU) Braunschweig have investigated how wind speeds change due to wind turbines at sea. Following the successful completion of the project, these data are now freely accessible in the world database PANGAEA.
