RELATED PROJECTS
- The Centre for Technological Innovation in Static Converters and Drives (CITCEA) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) participates in the H2GLASS project, which aims to accelerate decarbonisation in the glass industry through the development and application of the new technologies needed to achieve complete hydrogen (H₂) combustion in glass or steel production facilities.
- The project is led by a team from the Rehabilitation and Architectural Restoration (REARQ) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), in collaboration with the Interdisciplinary Group on Building Science and Technology (GICITED), also from UPC, and CONSTRAULA.
- A research team from the inLab FIB at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), together with the Asociación de Personas con Movilidad Reducida (AsoPMR), has taken part in the Spot4Dis project to enhance the mobility and autonomy of people with reduced mobility.
- The La Volta project foresees the construction of a large Catalan vault pergola within the Llars Mundet campus, in the Montbau neighbourhood (Horta-Guinardó district). This structure will become a new architectural landmark for Barcelona, combining traditional construction techniques with contemporary innovation. The project involves the Rehabilitation and Architectural Restoration Research Group (REARQ), at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), and is led by the Architects’ Association of Catalonia (COAC) and the Barcelona Provincial Council.
