re-conceptualize shopping malls from consumerism to energy conservation (COMMONENERGY)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

CommONEnergy focuses on existing shopping malls to be refurbished and buildings with a different original function, redesigned to become shopping malls. Wholesales&Retail buildings represent 28% of the total non-residential building stock (BPIE, 2010), accounting for approximately 157 Mtoe in 2005 (EU EEAP). Considering typical shopping malls high impact on modern society (ICSC, 2008), the project ...

Enhanced Energy Efficiency and Comfort by Smart Light Transmittance Control (EELICON)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2017,

EELICON is concerned with an innovative switchable light transmittance technology developed previously in projects co-funded by the EU Framework Programmes. The core of this development are mechanically flexible and light-weight electrochromic (EC) film devices based on a conductive polymer nanocomposite technology with a unique property profile far beyond the current state-of-the art, opening the ...

Adaptive and smart materials and structures for more efficient vessels (ADAM4EVE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

Materials and structures are called adaptive if they can change certain properties in a predictable manner due to the forces acting on them (passive) or by means of built in actuators (active). Those materials and structures are referred to as smart if they provide best performance when operation circumstances change. The project ADAM4EVE focuses on the development and assessment of applications o ...

Enhancing resource Uptake from Roots under stress in cereal crops (EUROOT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

The overall goal of EURoot is to help farmers to face both climate change, which is expected to result in increasingly uneven rainfall, and meet the societal demand for sustainable agriculture with reduced use of water and fertilizers. EURoot objective is to enhance the cereal plant capability to acquire water and nutrients through their roots and maintain growth and performance under stress condi ...

Containment thermal-hydraulics of current and future LWRs for severe accident management (ERCOSAM)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2014,

"The presence of a stratification in a NPP containment is a source of concern, as pockets of hydrogen in high concentration could lead to a deflagration or detonation risk. The objectives of the project are two folds: one is to establish whether in a test sequence representative of a severe accident in a LWR a hydrogen (helium) stratification can be established during part of the transient startin ...

Silicon sUbstrates from an inteGrated Automated pRocess (SUGAR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

"Since the silicon wafer still accounts for a substantial part of the cost of solar modules, reducing the silicon consumption per watt peak is one of the most effective ways of reducing the overall cost of PV systems. In this project we propose a methodology to produce a high-efficiency solar module with a very limited amount of Si. The methodology is based on two technologies: the first one for t ...

Innovative Switchable Shading Appliances based on Nanomaterials and Hybrid Electrochromic Device Configurations (INNOSHADE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

INNOSHADE is concerned with an innovative, nanocomposite-based switchable light transmittance technology developed previously for small sized objects (eyewear). It constitutes a breakthrough in smart shading technology by overcoming common limitations of state-of-the-art electrochromic devices. INNOSHADE enables the low cost production of electrochromic shading appliances with lower energy consump ...
