Photovoltaic potential in Austria: open space PV for the energy transition
Austria faces a major challenge when it comes to the energy transition and the associated climate goals. Current studies show that the construction of open space PV (photovoltaic) is not only a wish but a need to achieve the ambitious goals by 2030. This was confirmed in particular by Hubert Fechner, the chairman of the technology platform photovoltaics.
Fechner emphasizes that the need for photovoltaic energy must increase to up to 21 terawatt hours by 2030. It becomes clear that the existing potential on roofs and other existing infrastructures will not be sufficient in order to master this enormous challenge. The need to open up unused areas for solar energy generation is becoming more and more urgent. This is not only an economic possibility, but also a step towards a more sustainable energy future.
The role of open space PV in Austria's energy transition
The discussion about open space PV has gained importance in recent years. While many buildings already have visually developed areas for solar panels, there are numerous unused areas that can be considered for the installation of solar parks. Fechner argues that Austria can not only be dependent on existing structures, but has to actively use unused areas to achieve the climate goals.
The integration of open space PV into the energy transition could be a key to reducing CO2 emissions. If Austria wants to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels and at the same time cover the energy requirements of the population, innovative solutions and the use of suitable areas are crucial.
In addition to the ecological advantages, the development of open space PV could also bring economic advantages by creating jobs in the industry and boosting the local economy. So there is not only an urgent need for sustainable energy, but also an opportunity to benefit from the conversion of the energy infrastructure. In view of these facts, the decision -makers must work in politics to take the necessary steps. Fechner appeals to those responsible to check the infrastructural conditions and take appropriate measures so that Austria can successfully implement the climate goals.
