Benefits for people and the environment

A renewable energy community brings benefits for you, for the community, and for the environment.

Your advantages as a consumer:

EEG Vienna customers act with a future-oriented approach

As a customer of EEG WIEN, you receive sustainably generated electricity directly from your region and benefit from greater transparency and fair prices. You are not just a consumer, but a member and can have your say. At the same time, you actively support the expansion of renewable energies in your region and thus contribute directly to climate protection.

  • Lower electricity prices and reduced network costs all year round when using EEG (Renewable Energy Sources Act) feed-in tariffs
  • Renewable energy from your region
  • Support for climate protection and regional value creation
Your advantages as a producer:

As an EEG WIEN feed-in customer, you make the best choice.

As a member of our renewable energy community, you can directly feed your self-generated, sustainable electricity into the grid. This allows you to receive fair compensation, often more attractive and transparent than with traditional feed-in models. At the same time, your electricity is consumed regionally, strengthening the local energy transition and reducing grid losses. As a member of the renewable energy community, you are also actively involved, can participate in decision-making, and make a direct contribution to the regional energy transition and climate protection.

  • Remuneration is usually higher than the OeMAG annual average.
  • You remain the owner of your generation plant.
  • You benefit from high purchase volumes through the multi-stage EU management of EEG WIEN.
The benefits for the electricity grid and the environment

Doing good automatically

While you purchase electricity from or supply it to EEG WIEN, numerous benefits automatically arise for the environment, the region, and the community. Regional consumption of renewable energy reduces CO₂ emissions, minimizes transmission losses, and promotes the expansion of sustainable energy generation locally. At the same time, added value remains in the region, local infrastructure is strengthened, and awareness of responsible energy use grows.

  • Relieving the strain on the electricity grids through regionally generated and used electricity
  • Active contribution to environmental protection and long-term security of supply
  • Support for local energy projects and new renewable energy plants
