Austria Renewable Energy PV Installation Growth
Drivers are the high electricity prices after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, falling PV module prices, increasing numbers of companies offering a full-service installation,
The solar PV segment is likely to witness considerable growth in the Austrian solar energy market during 2021. The total renewable energy generation in Austria reached 13.3 TWh in 2021, and the total installed capacity of renewables was 22,014 MW in the same year.
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.
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.
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.
