Wind and solar sites in Austria: the east leads

Why Lower Austria and Burgenland dominate wind and solar in Austria, and how Gridscouter ranks sites.

Wind

Almost all of Austria's 1,500+ mapped wind turbines are in the flat, windy east. Repowering older turbines is a big opportunity.

Solar

Solar is spread across the country; ground-mounted parks need zoning from the state.

Note

Gridscouter scores are estimates from open map data, not grid operator capacity figures. Confirm connection capacity with the grid operator.
