We use the power of wind and sun
In order to continue to supply Europe, and Austria in particular, with reliable electricity, it is important to make optimal use of all energy sources. In addition to hydropower, we therefore also rely on photovoltaics (PV) and wind energy, which complement each other perfectly.
Hydropower provides a stable basis for electricity supply. While sunny, windless days provide a lot of solar power, wind energy continues to provide electricity on cloudy or windy days and in the evening and night hours. Wind turbines prove to be a reliable source of electricity, especially in winter, when solar radiation is low and many rivers carry less water. This combination ensures a more reliable power supply, reduces dependence on individual sources and enables the efficient use of renewable energies. Innovative solutions such as storage systems also play a crucial role here.
In addition to our home market of Austria, we develop and operate projects in several other countries: VERBUND is also active in Germany, Spain, Italy, Romania and Albania.
