Evaluation of the Carinthian Wind Power Siting Ordinance
The use of wind energy in Carinthia has been regulated since 2012 by the Wind Power Siting Areas Ordinance, which was updated in 2016. The so-called visibility regulation defines the location areas in which the use of wind energy is permissible. Three years after its entry into force, it is being evaluated in a broad discussion process with regard to the legal feasibility of projects, protective provisions and different regulatory systems.
