The SWB is a prefabricated system composed of an insulating frame, highly efficient timber-frame window, photovoltaic modules, automated shading and a decentralized ventilation machine. Three main SWB configurations were identified based on a joint technical feasibility and performance-based assessment.A forth configuration has been defined and installed in he projects demo cases.
Climate-neutral and smart citiesAddressing target audiences and expressing needs
- Business partners – SMEs, Entrepreneurs, Large Corporations
- Technology Transfer Expertise
- The possibility to expand the clients area thanks to specific collaboration with other companies (let them produce the SWB under Eurofinestra directive) defining a NdA. The main reference clients are: engineers, architects and designer in general. Also, the General Contractors could be a possible target.
- The possibility to have strategic cooperation and partnership with big players that has capability to produce the SWB or some of its component with industrialized approach
- Public or private funding institutions
- EU and Member State Policy-makers
- Other Actors who can help us fulfil our market potential
R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
- The most complicated SWB products (the one that integrate all the functionalities) is very closed to the market and minor optimization should be done.
- Several other SWB products are ready for the market (WB with trickle vent, with Ventilation machine, etc..)
- Components like PELLINI system could be also sell separately (30k control battery unit elements has been already sell till now).
- An evolution of the SWB concept is under development thanks to the participation of a H2020 project called Cultural-E
- Shared IP on SWB: The IP is shared between EuroFinestra and EURAC. A utility model filing is in process by Eurofinestra and EURAC.
- Smart Control Hub (ER4.1): Patent on the innovative shading system, the Copyright (shading control logics), and the potential NDA on the shading control logics (IP of Pellini +EURAC).
