Sustainable and digital innovations to reach net zero, built via synergies and collaboration in partner ecosystem, with a holistic approach to circularity targets and reducing carbon footprint
Research and prototype new sustainable materials. Assess feasibility and scalability for volume production of novel low-carbon material solutions and automate emissions calculations and tracking in the full chain.
Find solutions to further reduce buildings' lifetime energy consumption. Innovate new energy saving solutions with building owners and users. Prototype new technologies to optimize building energy use.
Assess the opportunities in building-level carbon reduction, implementat proof-of-concepts, and evaluate commercial value. Integrate building usage data with smart building systems.
Through co-research with our partners, we are developing the necessary research foundations required for our co-innovation initiatives.
We are seeking partners in accelerating the discovery, understanding and adoption of both novel and emerging material innovations in the construction and manufacturing sectors. With ecosystem partners, the aim is to advance research into new materials and enable their industry adoption.
We are collaborating with research partners for exploring and defining circular economy practices for the building renovation industry. This includes researching AI-based methods to remotely scan and detect materials and identifying new use cases for second-life components.
We are looking for research partners to unlock building-level energy and carbon optimization. The aim is to investigate and define the architectural and algorithmic foundations for holistic, data-driven building optimization.
Together with our partners, we are developing real-life solutions based on the co-research findings. To decarbonize buildings, we are piloting and adopting new material, data-driven and circular solutions:
We are looking for partners for developing and integrating low-carbon materials that can be utilized and scaled in buildings to industrial volumes. We are also investigating scalable solutions for circularity of existing materials.
Together with ecosystem partners, we are piloting circular economy solutions for building renovation by testing the practical reuse of high-value building components. This includes testing AI-powered diagnostic tools to remotely identify second-life potential of components.
We are seeking partners for developing digital tools to optimize energy efficiency of buildings based on actual usage patterns. In collaboration with our ecosystem partners, we are exploring control solutions that dynamically adjust building operations.
