The research unit of Building Physics and Regenerative Systems at TU Wien is dedicated to developing new and transformative solutions for buildings and cities, with the overarching goal of reducing CO2 emissions, while guaranteeing sustainable and comfortable living spaces throughout their entire lifecycle.

We have a strong expertise in buildings, their components, and systems, as well as their integration into neighborhoods and focus on understanding and using the underlying physical principles to develop solutions.

Our key focus areas are retrofitting existing buildings for better energy performance, urban climate modelling to predict and mitigate heat islands and reduce its effect on buildings, and energy system modelling to integrate renewable energy systems in buildings and cities.
