		According to the regional energy strategies of the country Tyrol and the Autonomous Province of Bolzano, the use of renewable energy, specifically the solar energy is foreseen to implement the guideline of the European Directive 2009/28 / EC to promote the use of renewable energy. For the design of such systems there is a lack of&nbsp;data base for the potential for solar energy generation with high spatial resolution&nbsp;on roof level. 
		 
		Objectives of the project are therefore: 
		 
		1) A freely accessible, geo-referenced database on solar potential, which allows public institutions and private users in the country Tyrol and the province of Bolzano, to determine quickly and easily the solar potential at the building level and thr optimal use of technology. 
		 
		To give 2) Specific recommendations on the importance of solar energy and its development opportunities in the country Tyrol and the province of Bolzano.</div>

Apart from the work packages project management (WP1) and public relations (WP2)&nbsp;&nbsp; the following activities in the project&nbsp; will be carried out: 
	 
	WP3: Science 
	 
	Development of innovative methods for: 
	 
	3.1) Derivation of the atmosphere-corrected radiation data for structural objects (innovative approach based on the satellite solar radiation maps created within the previous&nbsp;project &quot;PV Alps&quot;. 
	 
	3.2) Validation of the developed methodology for building objects in 3.1 
	 
	3.3) Survey of the solar power potential on roof level 
	 
	WP5: Evaluation 
	 
	Generation of y high-resolution raster databases of solar radiation, the solar power potential and the potential for solar thermal systems using the new innovative approach and new terrain data at&nbsp; for the state of Tyrol and the province of Bolzano. 
	 
	5.4) Evaluation of the duration of sunshine and solar radiation 
	 
	5.5) Evaluation of the solar power potential of all object surfaces 
	 
	5.6) Evaluation of the potential use of the roof space by solar thermal systems 
	 
	WP6: Usage 
	 
	The results will be evaluated by potential users. Recommendations for planning are developed and the solar data is made ​​available in Web-based mapping services to the public. The proposed recommendations include both technical recommendations on building level, as well as more far-reaching recommendations for the implementation of regional energy strategies. 
	 
	6.2) Review and development of implementation measures 
	 
	Evaluation of local development potential of solar energy for cities and towns incl. potential for reducing greenhouse gases, highlighting the regional importance of solar energy incl. Importance for long-term energy and climate strategy 
	 
	6.4) Public Information 
	 
	Integration of the results into the official WebGIS incl. Query the potential for use. 
	 
	Transfer of knowledge to citizens, energy advice centers, installers 
	 
	Specific advice on the application of project results for private providers and public authorities
