Accelerating Adoption of Building Energy Technologies

Fraunhofer CSE’s Building Technology Showcase is a first-of-its-kind project representing the future of sustainable design and construction. We are performing a deep energy retrofit and renovation of a historic, 100-year-old building in Boston’s Innovation District to create a “living laboratory” for R&D of advanced building energy technologies.

 

Fraunhofer CSE will validate the reliability and effectiveness of the technologies incorporated into the building, helping manufacturers develop their innovative products with applied research. These technologies will be showcased in a state-of-the-art exhibition and educational space. Partnering with industry, government, and institutions, we are creating a pathway for national adoption of energy-saving technologies in the commercial and residential sectors.

 

Partnership Opportunities for Industry

Dozens of manufacturers and other industry partners have already committed to custom research and demonstration projects involving their innovative technologies, which will be integrated into the new facility. By including your product and/or working with Fraunhofer CSE on applied technology research, you gain valuable exposure in the building community along with many other benefits, including:

  • Opportunities to connect with thought leaders and innovators
  • Prominent display in exhibit space
  • Recognition in building announcements and events, plus publicity tailored to your organization’s involvement
  • Presentation opportunities at seminars and workshops held at the Center
