At a school in Kochi, local regional partners and researchers from various Fraunhofer Institutes are testing technologies for adapting to the changing climate.

Fraunhofer IBP is helping to identify the potential of concrete and to exploit it accordingly.

Our projects entitled “Clean Air Acoustics”, “AC/DC”, and “Healthy Air Initiative” focus on finding ways to purify air in rooms while keeping noise levels low.

Radiation concentrations due to focusing glass facades can cause material damage (for instance, failure of plastics, e.g. seals in facades) and induce annoying glare problems, which may even impair visual functions.

The aim of the DIAL project was to improve lighting and energy-related façade planning by providing suitable planning tools.

The joint "EcoCab" project will decisively contribute to the development of a holistic strategy for improving sustainability throughout the shipbuilding industry.

The Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development and Building has launched the successor to the Plus Energy House: Efficiency House Plus with Electric Mobility.

The project aimed to raise the market share of renovation measures with a view to increasing energy efficiency and promoting the use of renewable energy.
