A look into the future: the Tannerhof with the as yet unrealized bathhouse (r.).
The PV system will be built there on a meadow.

Because the roofs are not sufficient, the Tannerhof in Bayrischzell is planning an open-space photovoltaic system for its own use.
The local councilors would like a more locally compatible design.
Bayrischzell
– Burgi von Mengershausen recently stopped by the Bayrischzell local council, of which she was once a member.
The operator of the Tannerhof nature hotel followed up on her request to set up an open-air photovoltaic system there.
In the end, she left the meeting without a concrete decision in her pocket: the committee postponed the decision and wanted to first see for itself at an on-site visit.
As managing director Josef Acher explained to the local councilors, the Tannerhof is planning a free-standing PV system on a slope in three rows in a south-east orientation with a total of 504 modules.
“Each row measures around 73 meters,” explained Acher, referring to the municipality’s design statutes: “It says that PV systems are generally only permitted on roofs.” Any deviation would have to be regulated in the development plan.
Given this dimension, he wasn't sure whether it would even work.
Tannerhof needs more electricity
The local councilors then gave Mengershausen the right to speak so that they could comment on their project: “We have been planning for a long time how we can supply the Tannerhof with good energy in a future-oriented manner,” reported the hotel operator.
This requires self-generated electricity.
Also because the wood chip heating system should be replaced by a heat pump.
The high consumption would not be covered even if all available roof areas were covered with photovoltaics.
Hence the idea of the open space facility.
Mengershausen assured mixed use: “Our animals could graze and shelter under it.”
Willy Kravanja (independent) asked about the planned bathhouse, which is also to be built in the area (we reported).
“Then there would be more roof space again.” Mengershausen emphasized that this had already been taken into account.
Mayor Georg Kittenrainer (CSU) could understand the idea in principle: “If you have land yourself and want to generate electricity on it, that is an understandable concern.” However, he is very concerned that this will set a precedent: “How do we handle that in the future?” asked the head of the town hall, particularly with regard to agricultural businesses that rely on leased land.
“We know that leased areas with PV bring significantly higher prices.
I'm somewhat worried about that.” Kittenrainer therefore suggested that the Tannerhof roof its parking spaces with PV modules.
This means that no free space is wasted: “It would be much easier for me to go along with you.”
Local councilors disagree about location for PV system
Klaus Weilbach (CSU) saw the local council before a fundamental decision.
“It's about the energy transition, we want to move away from fossil fuels.” There isn't much that can be used to generate electricity other than wind turbines and PV.
“Ultimately it’s a visual story,” he emphasized.
He doesn't see any sealing because the system is on stands.
Vice Mayor Egid Stadler (CSU) came out as a “PV fan”.
“But I have a huge problem with open spaces,” he clarified.
Only when all roofs and parking spaces in Bayrischzell are used and there is still demand, “we can tackle the beautiful mountain meadows, but not before.”
Hanno Acher (FWG) agreed with Stadler: “First exhaust everything else before you build anything in the field.” Isidor Scharmann (FWG) suggested placing the PV system under the main house on the sheep meadow: “It doesn’t stand out that much brutally in the eye.”
In the end, Kittenrainer was confident that he would find a solution for a “site-compatible design”.
The local council should determine this on site.
