Technical FAQs 4

Is Austria poised for a significant transformation in solar energy?

Austria’s solar energy sector is poised for a significant transformation as the government updates its subsidy guidelines to incentivize more power purchase agreements (PPAs) for solar photovoltaic (PV) projects.

How much solar power does Austria generate?

Solar power in Austria contributes 8.82 TWh of generation to the Austrian grid, accounting for 11.2% of total electric power generation as of 2024, with 8.48 GW of installed capacity.

How much solar power does Austria have in 2023?

As of the end of 2023, Austria’s solar power capacity had reached 3,667 MW, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). This growth has been propelled by an array of policy measures, including feed-in tariffs, investment subsidies, and now, the updated guidelines for PPAs.

How many solar panels does Austria need?

With more than 3,500 MW thermal the country ranks second in the EU, only behind much larger Germany. Austria aims to achieve a 100% renewable electricity production by 2030 with 1,000,000 homes having solar panels fitted by that date. 11 TWh of extra photovoltaics will be needed above 2021 levels.
