Abstract

Klimawandel und Energiekrise sind zwei Schlagworte, die den umwelt- und gesellschaftspolitischen Diskurs dominieren. Das heutige Energiesystem basiert auf dem Verbrennen fossiler Energietra¨ger, wobei große Mengen an Kohlendioxid (CO2) emittiert werden, die in Folge durch den Treibhauseffekt weitreichende Klimavera¨nderungen hervorrufen. O¨sterreich bewegt sich wie viele andere Industriestaaten bei der Nutzung fossiler Brennstoffe auf einem Niveau fernab von den Zielen der Nachhaltigkeit. Obwohl in der Energieproduktion der Anteil erneuerbarer Energieressourcen laufend steigt und Energieeffizienzmaßnahmen in allen Wirtschaftssektoren vermehrt zum Einsatz kommen, reichen die jetzigen Bemu¨hungen nicht aus, um das o¨sterreichische Energiesystem auf einen klimafreundlichen Pfad zu bringen. Anhand der Ergebnisse einer CO2-Vermeidungskostenkurve fu¨r O¨sterreich wird gezeigt, dass das Potenzial der vorhandenen Mo¨glichkeiten mit Energie effizienter umzugehen, bei weitem nicht ausgescho¨pft wird und im Anschluss werden die Gru¨nde dafu¨r diskutiert. Des Weiteren wird na¨her auf die Rolle der Raumplanung fu¨r ein nachhaltiges Energiesystem eingegangen. Im Bereich der erneuerbaren Energietra¨ger, der Regional- und Siedlungsstrukturen und vera¨nderter Werte und Rollenbilder wird ero¨rtert, welche Weichen in der Raumplanung eine nachhaltigere Energienutzung bewirken ko¨nnen. Der Beitrag zeigt, dass es noch viele ungenutzte Potenziale sowohl beim Einsatz von erneuerbaren Energietra¨gern und bei Energieeffizienzmaßnahmen wie auch bei politischen und institutionellen Vera¨nderungen gibt.
