• Goals of the Austrian Programme on Technologies
  for Sustainable Development
• To foster a structural change leading towards a
  sustainable economy through research, development
  and dissemination.

3

• Strategic objectives
• Strengthening of RD competence by fostering
  interdisciplinary co-operation and networking
• Support in generating new RD projects setting a
  landmark for the future
• Dissemination of RD results and of the concept
  of sustainable development of the economy

4

• Qualities of the Programme
• Calls for tenders oriented towards the overall
  goal of the programme
• Supporting the generation of future-oriented RTD
  projects
• Support by program management before and after
  the call
• Evaluation of project proposals by an
  international jury
• Dissemination of the results and support through
  accompanying measures

5

• 7 Key Principles
• Orientation at function / service
• Resource efficiency
• Use of renewable resources
• Multiple (cascadic) use of resources
• Embedding, flexibility and adaptability
  (appropriateness)
• Tolerance (fault-proof), ability to learn and
  risk-precaution
• Ability to ensure work, income and quality of
  life
• evaluation by international jury

Systems of Tomorrow

• renewable energies, focus on bio-energy
• Safe and environmentally sound power supply in a
  liberalized market
• Long term oriented energy technologies in the
  context of international co operation

• innovative residential, office and commercial
  buildings
• re-modelling and re-vitalisation

• production systems, production technologies

skill enhancement activities, academic spin-off
programmes
8

• What is the Building of Tomorrow?
• innovative residential, office and commercial
  buildings
• with a high market potential
• which compared to the present practice in
  Austria considerably reduce energy and material
  input
• which increasingly use renewable sources of
  energy, renewable and ecologically sound
  materials
• which also take into account social aspects and
  cost efficiency

• Energy Systems of Tomorrow
• focus
• to increase the share of renewable energy sources
  in Austria (and reduce CO2-output)
• to secure the quality of power generation in
  Austria

• Success stories
• considerable interest and participation among
  stakeholders in industry and research
• after only 3 years a number of concept studies
  will be realised as demonstration projects e.g.
  construction of 8 buildings of tomorrow will
  start this year

13

• benchmarks (1999 2001)
• 82 projects financed within the first three years
  (1999-2001)
• 300 institutions (universities, non-university
  research centres, industry) involved (1999-2001)
• funding granted by contract and/or decree
• financial volume
• ATS 132 millions (Euro 9,6 millions) (1999-2001)
• approx. ATS 650 millions (Euro 43,6 millions)
  (1999-2003)
• main funding Austrian Ministry of Technology
  (about 2/3)
• co-funding regional governments

14

• genesis of the research programme
• 1 call for proposals per sub-programme per year
• 1999 start of the RTD-programme,
• 1st sub-programme (building of tomorrow)
• 2000 2nd sub-programme (factory of tomorrow)
• 2002 3rd sub-programme (energy systems of
  tomorrow)
• programme scheduled to run until approx. 2003 or
  longer
