Just yesterday, Austria’s energy agency described wind power over the next few years and decades as the most important form of electricity generation. Wind power is life insurance for the domestic business location. Every second job in Carinthia depends on industry. “It is welcome that legal certainty is to be created for existing wind farms and those that are already in procedures,” said Windkraft Managing Director Florian Maringer. Measures such as the temporary building block for wind power by 2026 should not lead to the fact that ready -to -implement projects – and thus Carinthia – are further delayed.
It is now important to return to the discussion. Wind power is the form of energy that offers the necessary security of supply when the energy requires increasing. With the current result of the state parliament parties and social partners, you have to quickly implement the implementation in Carinthia. It is clear that “existing requirements on the part of the state and the EU not only now exclude protected areas, but also commit to the highest transparency in the further process,” said Maringer. And further: “Building on this, planning and investment security is now quickly needed. The high potential of Carinthia for safe and cheap energy from your own country must not be further restricted. ”
The most important thing is now a clean and clear zoning process that is embedded in the implementation of the Renewable Energy Directive (Red III) and strengthens Carinthia’s energy independence.
