The living lab’s mission is to accelerate digital transformation in the energy sector through smart-building innovation, contributing to a more reliable, low-carbon future. At its core is the goal of turning buildings from passive energy consumers into active, intelligent prosumers—optimizing efficiency, integrating renewable energy sources, and enhancing occupant comfort.
The long-term vision is to realize “software-defined buildings in symbiosis with their environment.” In this vision, buildings dynamically adapt their energy demand to climate conditions and grid conditions, preserving a healthy indoor climate while self-optimizing energy use. Ultimately, these insights and solutions aim to shape the cities of tomorrow by reducing carbon footprints and elevating the quality of life for building users.
