Solar Panel Tilt Angle in Austria

So far based on Solar PV Analysis of 113 locations in Austria, we've discovered that the ideal angle to tilt solar PV panels in Austria varies between 41° from the horizontal plane facing South in Göpfritz an der Wild and 40° from the horizontal plane facing South in Villach.

These tilt angles are optimised for maximum annual PV output at each location for fixed-panel solar PV installations. If you click on one of the locations above, there is further detail on ideal seasonal tilt angles as well (in case your solar panels are adjustable).

Depending on where you are based in Austria, the ideal angle to tilt your solar panels will vary by approx 1 degree (between 41° from the horizontal plane facing South and 40° from the horizontal plane facing South).

Austria solar PV Stats as a country

Austria ranks 28th in the world for cumulative solar PV capacity, with 2,692 total MW's of solar PV installed. This means that 3.40% of Austria's total energy as a country comes from solar PV (that's 25th in the world). Each year Austria is generating 302 Watts from solar PV per capita (Austria ranks 14th in the world for solar PV Watts generated per capita). [source]

Are there incentives for businesses to install solar in Austria?

Yes, there are several incentives for businesses wanting to install solar energy in Austria. The Austrian government offers a range of financial support measures, including grants and loans, as well as tax breaks and other incentives. Additionally, the Austrian Energy Agency (AEA) provides information on funding opportunities for renewable energy projects. Furthermore, businesses can benefit from the Feed-in Tariff (FiT), which guarantees a fixed price for electricity generated from renewable sources such as solar energy.
