Innosuisse Flagship Greenhub

The "GreenHub" project is one of a total of eight large-scale flagship projects of the Swiss Innovation Agency (Innosuisse). Together with 16 research partners, the consortium led by OST is pursuing a clear goal: the development of systemic and innovative approaches for the production, conversion and storage of renewable energy…

Prototypentwicklung Hybridkühldeckenmodul

Massive Bauteile wie Betondecken bieten eine hohe thermische Masse zur Speicherung von Wärme und Kälte und zur Dämpfung der Raumtemperatur. Mit dem Industriepartner Barcol-Air Group AG, Schwerzenbach, ist ein innovatives Hybridkühldeckenmodul mit Betondeckenaktivierung im Rahmen eines Innosuisse Projekts entwickelt worden, dass…

Research project

Field measurements on net zero energy buildings with mixed use

The Black & White building in Pfäffikon SZ is centrally located and combines commercial use on the ground floor, office use on the first two upper floors and multi-family residential use on the third and fourth floors and the attic of the building. The field measurements evaluated over a year and the simulations carried out confirm…

Research project

Concept study for the energy supply of the Eichwies and Schachen sites

In a concept study, the Eichwies and Schachen sites in Rapperswil-Jona were investigated with regard to a future-oriented and sustainable energy supply. Due to good heat sources on the sites, a net zero energy balance can be achieved for the sites with the installation of photovoltaics on the roof and on the building…

Research project

Project management of Annex 49 in the heat pump programme HPT of the IEA

All new buildings in Europe must be designed as net zero energy buildings (nZEB) from 1 January 2021. Building technology concepts for achieving these requirements are therefore of great interest. Heat pump systems are emerging as standard solutions for nZEB due to their high efficiency. On behalf of the Swiss Federal…
