!!!Windenergie

Wind Energy: First attempts to gain energy from wind power were 
discontinued after discouraging results in the 1980s. However, in the 
1990s new wind generators were built in the provinces of Salzburg 
(Strasswalchen, 10 kW) and Lower Austria (Eckartsau, 150 kW; 
St. Poelten, 110 kW; Michelbach, 225 kW; Zistersdorf, 
30 kW) based on successful operations in the Netherlands, Denmark 
and Germany. 35 wind generators had been integrated into the electric 
power supply system by 1996. An example of the early use of wind 
energy is the windmill at Retz (Lower Austria) from 1722.
