Energy transition in Austria: Experts are calling for the expansion of open space PV

In order to achieve Austria's ambitious climate goals, a drastic expansion of photovoltaic capacities is essential. In a recent study, Hubert Fechner, the chairman of the technology platform Photovoltaics, has pointed out that the existing possibilities on buildings and other infrastructures will not be sufficient to realize the increase of up to 21 terawatt hours by 2030.

Fechner said that the necessary measures for the energy transition must be promoted in particular by the installation of open space PV. These options are to be made possible to close the gap between the ambitious climate goals and the current capacities. The experts agree that without these steps the reaching of the climate goals would remain a long way off.

The challenge of the energy transition

In order to exploit the potential of renewable energies, it is crucial to identify the suitable areas for the installation of photovoltaic systems. This is particularly important in a country like Austria, where the use of open spaces is often conflict with other interests such as agriculture and nature conservation.

In summary, it can be said that Austria can only create a successful energy transition by using open spaces. The clear message of experts like Hubert Fechner shows that comprehensive efforts are necessary to achieve the goals of the federal government.
