Graphic 1: In your opinion, how useful would an Austria climate protection bond be as a contribution to the Austrian energy transition? (1 – not useful; 10 – very useful; n = 26)
The funds raised by the Austrian climate protection bond should, according to those asked, flow into sustainable energy infrastructure projects, energy efficiency in houses (especially for renovations), renewable energies such as water power, solar and wind turbines, charging stations for e-cars etc. However also innovative sustainable energy concepts should be financed by it, such as for example solar thermal energy with long-term storage and intelligent power networks. Furthermore smaller sustainable energy projects with longer payback periods should also be considered.
