Abbau von Hemmnissen beim Repowering von Windenergieanlagen – Planungsrechtliche Rahmenbedingungen

Summary

Germany aims to significantly increase its wind energy capacity by more than doubling it by 2030 and tripling it by 2040. A key challenge to achieving this is the repowering of old wind turbines with new, more powerful models, which has faced obstacles due to a lack of clear planning guidelines for authorities. This report analyzes the planning law framework conditions for repowering and is part of a project that already produced a practical guide for regional and municipal planning in 2023. The initiative is in progress, continually addressing legal uncertainties and restrictions to facilitate the expansion of wind energy.
