Subsidies and revenue
The amount of subsidy and achievable revenue varies from state to state in Austria. There are investment and tariff subsidies. Some Austrian states do not subsidise investment costs, but do allow higher revenue by way of
tariff subsidisation. Other states do subsidise the investment, but not or only to a limited extent the electricity fed into the grid.
Tariff subsidisation is regulated in the Green Electricity Act (Ökostromgesetz).
