    The Handalm is a gentle summit on the Koralpe, which rises north of the Weinebene. From here you have a great view of the Lavant Valley in the west and far into Styria in the east. On top of the summit you can also explore exciting rock formations.

        Energie Steiermark is positioning itself as a renewable electricity supplier and is investing around 58 million euros in a large-scale wind farm project in the Deutschlandsberg district. On the Handalm on the border with Carinthia, 13 wind turbines were built at an altitude of around 1,800 meters. Its rotors have a diameter of 82 meters and have been supplying green electricity for more than 21,000 households since October 2017. The total output is 39 MW, 76 gigawatt hours of green electricity are generated annually. This makes this project larger than any previous wind farm in southern Austria.
        When designing the wind farm, whose rotor blades have a diameter of 82 meters, special emphasis was placed on sensitive handling of the ecological environment: a total of 150 individual editions ensure special protection from wild animals, birds, bats and the surrounding alpine pastures and forest areas.
