6 FAQs about [Austria photovoltaic energy storage project planning]

How much does a photovoltaic battery storage system cost in Austria?

The total inventory of photovoltaic battery storage systems in Austria therefore rose to 11,908 storage systems with a cumulative usable storage capacity of approx. 121 MWh. For 2020, a price of around € 914 per kWh of usable storage capacity excl. VAT was charged for PV storage systems installed as turnkey solutions.

Why is Austria boosting its solar power capacity?

Moreover, the maximum subsidy for electrical storage systems has been raised from €25,000 to €50,000, reflecting a commitment to bolstering the infrastructure necessary for sustainable energy storage. Austria’s solar power capacity has been on a steady upward trajectory, buoyed by supportive government policies and declining technology costs.

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.

Why is Austria allowing PV systems with PPAs to receive subsidies?

By enabling PV systems with PPAs to receive additional subsidies, the Austrian government is facilitating easier access to financing for developers of new projects. The revised guidelines are part of Austria’s broader strategy to transition to a low-carbon economy and achieve its renewable energy targets.

Does Austria have a market for energy storage technologies?

A study 1 carried out by the University of Applied Sciences Technikum Wien, AEE INTEC, BEST and ENFOS presents the market development of energy storage technologies in Austria for the first time.

How big is Austria's hydraulic storage power plant capacity?

In 2020, Austria had a hystorically grown inventory of hydraulic storage power plants with a gross maximum capacity of 8.8 GW and gross electricity generation of 14.7 TWh. This storage capacity has already played a central role in the past in optimising power plant deployment and grid regulation.
