Wind power in Austria

Although Austria is surrounded by land and is really hilly topography, meteorological preconditions permit the utilization of wind power. First calculations on the basis of wind measuring data assessed at the meteorological stations in the early 1980s rendered the surprising result of annually approx. 6,600 to 10,000 gigawatt-hour (GWh) of technically exploitable wind energy potential in Austria.

Ice build-up on wind turbines

With the increasing expansion of wind power in Austria, this problem of maintaining grid stability is becoming ever greater. However, it is not only the icing of the rotor blades that can lead to
