Räumliche Herausforderungen der Energie- und Ressourcenwende

The energy and resource transition is usually not perceived as a task of spatial planning. One research field of the Institute of Spatial Planning, Environmental Planning and Land Rearrangement (IRUB) at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences in Vienna is the identification of spatial aspects of the energy and resource shift towards renewable energy and raw material supply. The presentation deals with the systemic interlinkages between the energy and resource transition and space, the challenges and opportunities for spatial development in urban, suburban and rural areas, the expected environmental and socio-economic impacts as well as control approaches that can be pursued in spatial planning.
