Green traction current in Carinthia – ÖBB builds Austria’s first agrivoltaic system for railroad current!

Green energy can be so beautiful. The combination of solar energy and shaded pastures for agriculture is impressive. Austria’s first agri-photovoltaic system produces 15 GWh of energyday per year and also provides shade for around 6,000 chickens and 60 sheep. Biodiversity was also taken into account with trees and flower strips.

A really great project!
