The Austrian Energy Agency is the principal partner of the federal government in its effort to attain its energy policy objectives, which aim mainly at a macro-economically efficient production and a rational use of energy, at a stimulation of renewable energy sources and of innovative technologies. The Austrian Energy Agency acts, for all of its members, as a clearing house and a co-ordination platform for all associated national and international activities. The overall mandate of the Austrian Energy Agency is to make “energy savings”, an energy source which can successfully compete with conventional sources of energy, and to advocate boundary conditions under which market forces can act in favour of renewables and improved energy efficiency.

The AEA organizes symposia on energy efficiency and usage of regenerative energy as it does studies on various topics in this field. The AEA monitors CO2 abatement policies and CO2 saving technological innovation. And manages programmes concerning energy technology and innovation. It also provides information on subsidies for energy consulting and energy saving measures, and on EU-energy programmes. It supports municipalities and builds up a forum for energy related cooperation between the Austrian “Laender”.
