Electricity generation from RES in Austria
First place in the share of renewable energy for electricity production in EU-27
Share of RES : appr. 62%
Generation is traditionally dominated by large hydro power plants

Green Electricity Act 2003
National implementation of Directive 2001/77/EC
Feed-in-tariff System:
guaranteed tariff (amount and duration)

Amendment of Green Electricity Act 2006 – Modification of promotion mechanism
Approval of green of electricity plant by the province (regional government)Management of the promotion mechanism by an independend Green Electricity settlement Center (OeMAG)Operator of green electricity plant has to sign a contract with OeMAG to get the feed-in tariffTariff determined by a decree of the minister of economic affairsNew contracts with Operators:
first come first servefinal customers pay a lump sum fee per metering pointObligation for Electricity suppliers to buy green electricity for a fixed transfer price
Austrian Energy Agency | April 22, 2023 | Seite 9
Promotion of green electricity (Green Electricity Act)
Financial support for
small hydro (up to 10 MW): feed-in tariffs
medium hydro (10 to 20 MW): investment subsidy
other green electricity (biomass, wind, …) : feed-in tariffs
Target: 10% „other“ eco-electricity until 2010
From 0,9% in 2002 to 8% in 2007
Financial support: about 240 Mio. €/year
