Concept and goals

Always looking towards a sustainable future

Where the journey is going

No more dependence on expensive oil imports, no more fear of gas crises – instead, clean energy generation from sun, wind, water and bioenergy from the region. In order to gradually implement the vision of 100% away from fossil fuels, KEM-Carnuntum is implementing projects in the following areas.

  • Renewable energy
  • Reduction in energy consumption
  • Sustainable building
  • Mobility
  • Agriculture
  • Awareness

The focus is, of course, on the interests of just over 3,000 local residents, who can benefit from events, consultations and bundled information packages on a wide range of topics. The market town of Petronell-Carnuntum acts as a coordinating body for the Climate and Energy Fund, which publicly supports this project. The three municipalities of KEM-Carnuntum are part of the district of Bruck/Leitha and the superordinate LEADER region Römerland Carnuntum.

The KEM-Carnuntum measures

In the course of the implementation phase, 10 different key topics will be implemented in the form of a wide variety of activities and events. These are:

  • Use of solar energy
  • Focus on energy communities
  • Focus on buildings
  • Focus on mobility
  • Focus on climate change
  • Full supply with renewable energy
  • Awareness-raising and public relations work
  • Stem for the next generation
  • Focus on personal responsibility
  • Focus on regional value creation

Further information on the planned measures and the region can be found in the implementation concept .
