All Austrian provinces have set up corresponding service centers to advise project applicants. Links and information are available at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.klimaaktiv.at\/service\/beratung\/energieberatungen.html\">https:\/\/www.klimaaktiv.at\/service\/beratung\/energieberatungen.html<\/a>.<br \/>\nElectricity permits are only not required if the installation is part of a commercial facility.<br \/>\nA building permit will also have to be obtained in many cases. Under certain circumstances, considerations of regional planning and the protection of the appearance of a locality may prevent the installation of a PV system or require special consideration.<br \/>\nThe system operator must then apply to the responsible network operator in his supply area for network access or technically adapt an existing network access to the requirements of the system. A separate metering point is required to measure the amount of electricity fed into the grid and the amount of electricity withdrawn from the grid. This requires the conclusion of a corresponding network access agreement with the network operator.<\/p>\n<h1><strong>Subsidies for PV systems under the Renewable Expansion Act (EAG)<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>Operating subsidies under the Renewable Expansion Act (EAG) are only available for systems with a bottleneck capacity of more than 10 kWp. Operating subsidies are awarded for PV plants within the framework of two annual tenders. The plant operator must submit an offer (&#8220;bid&#8221;). The bid must specify a certain quantity (&#8220;bid quantity&#8221;) at a certain price (&#8220;bid price&#8221;). The contract is awarded to the cheapest bids and bid quantities until the tender volume is exhausted.<br \/>\nFor more information on the area of support for electricity generation from renewable sources under the Renewable Energy Expansion Act (EAG), please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/eag-abwicklungsstelle.at\/\">https:\/\/eag-abwicklungsstelle.at\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h1><strong>Our legal expertise in the field of renewable energies and PV systems<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>Dr. Georg Rihs has intensively dealt with the legal basis and procedures in connection with PV plants for a lecture on 23.11.2022 in the context of the conference &#8220;Climate.Economy.Law&#8221; and for a conference contribution.
