The Energy Transition On The Big Screen: Over 110 Students Got Hands-on Experience With Technology

02 July, 2026
For students at BG/BRG Klosterneuburg, HTL Spengergasse, and HTL Mödling, the movie theater became a learning lab featuring films, gaming challenges, and hands-on stations.
On June 22, 2026, UAS Technikum Wien, together with three partner schools, transformed the Village Cinema Wien Mitte into a future lab. Approximately 110 students from BG/BRG Klosterneuburg, HTL Spengergasse, and HTL Mödling took part in the free event “Shaping the Future: Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy.” The event was part of the Horizon Europe project “ProLight,” which was coordinated by Momir Tabakovic.
How can a climate-friendly future be shaped in concrete terms?
For two hours, the focus was on the question of how a climate-friendly future can be shaped in concrete terms. An impressive short film demonstrated the difference that building retrofits and renewable energy make in our cities. In interactive gaming sessions—ranging from escape-the-room elements to strategy challenges—the young people worked on tasks related to energy efficiency and CO₂ reduction. In the hands-on lab, they explored how to build a stable energy system or plan a climate-friendly park. The program was rounded out by insights into the Bachelor’s in Renewable Energy and Dual Bachelor’s in Hydrogen Technology programs at UAS Technikum Wien—ideal for anyone who wants to help develop real-world solutions for the energy transition in the future.
Don’t just be a spectator of the climate crisis—become a director of the energy transition
The event combined career guidance with curriculum content from physics and technology and demonstrated that students are not mere spectators of the climate crisis but can become architects of the energy transition themselves. UAS Technikum Wien would like to thank all participating classes from BG/BRG Klosterneuburg, HTL Spengergasse, and HTL Mödling for their enthusiasm and engaged participation.
The event was supported by the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) and the European Union.
