Sustainable energy generation at the ready-mixed concrete plant in Feldbach

The system was installed in just one month by the Austrian PV specialist 10hoch4 under the supervision of Gernot Fohleitner. It covers 150 m² of roof area and achieves an output of 33 kWp.

With an annual electricity production of 29 000 kWh, the PV system makes an important contribution to reducing CO2 emissions and conserving natural resources. Depending on the season, up to 50% of Rohrdorf's own needs can be covered by the system. Excess energy is fed into the public power grid and has been supporting the regional energy supply with sustainable electricity for six months.

Rohrdorf's "Initiative 3033" for more energy self-sufficiency

This measure is part of the comprehensive "Initiative 3033" that Rohrdorfer launched in mid-2023 to increase energy self-sufficiency in the long term and minimise the ecological footprint. The aim of the initiative is to cover at least 30% of electricity needs through its own renewable energies by 2033. Rohrdorfer are relying on a future-oriented combination of photovoltaics, waste heat utilisation, and geothermal energy.

A total of 44 PV projects with an impressive total output of 12.4 megawatts peak have already been implemented or are in the planning stage. A milestone on this path was the completion of the largest PV system to date in Berglern, which represents a decisive step towards energy self-sufficiency.

With the photovoltaic system in Feldbach, Rohrdorfer is underlining its clear commitment to sustainability, energy efficiency, and active climate protection. The Feldbach site is an example of how modern industry and ecological responsibility can be successfully combined.
