- Construction of the first Austrian nuclear power plant in Zwentendorf on the Danube, about 30 kilometres upstream from the capital, Vienna, began in 1972. Zwentendorf Nuclear Power Plant was designed as a boiling water reactor with a capacity of 700 MW(e), that was expected to generate about 10% of the Austrian electricity production. Many groups in the public society stood up against this commercial-technical development. From heritage and family-oriented more conservative people to utopian-driven leftists, activists for nature and the environment to critical technicians. They organised in a platform called "IÖAG - Initiative österreichischer Atomkraftwerksgegner" (transliterated: IOeAG), edited a simple DIN A5 brochure "Wie ist das mit den Atomkraftwerken wirklich?" (What is it about the nuclear power plants, really?) and an in volume and circulation growing newspaper, both financed by private members and a selling price. Many activists organised in groups, presented information desks, spoke to passing people visited and contributed offensive to official information events. However, in June 1978, the Socialist Chancellor Dr. Kreisky, announced a referendum on nuclear power, which was set down for November 5, 1978. The referendum resulted in a narrow majority against the Zwentendorf plant. Nearly two thirds of the voters (3.26 million people) went to the polls and of these 49.5% voted for, and 50.5% against, nuclear power. Newspapers did not write much about accidents, that already had happened until then. But Verbundkonzern - owning the big water power plants (and the grid) in Austria - feared a lowering of the price of electricity by the upcoming of nuclear power and started an advertising campaign in the months before the referendum in "Kronenzeitung". Suddenly this wide circulated newspaper published a series about the history and the accidents of nuclear power. The Zwentendorf plant was completed but has never produced electricity from nuclear energy. Austrian Chancellor Werner Faymann expects anti-nuclear petition drives to start in at least six European Union countries in 2012 with the goal of having the EU abandon nuclear power. Under the EU's Lisbon Treaty, petitions that attract at least one million signatures can seek legislative proposals from the European Commission. This would pave the way for anti-nuclear activists to increase support. (en)
- Die Anti-Atomkraft-Bewegung in Österreich entstand 1972 mit dem Bau des ersten österreichischen Kernkraftwerkes Zwentendorf in Zwentendorf an der Donau, etwa 30 km stromaufwärts von der Hauptstadt Wien. Das Atomkraftwerk Zwentendorf war als Siedewasserreaktor mit einer Kapazität von 700 MW konzipiert und sollte etwa 10 % des österreichischen Strombedarfs produzieren. Doch im Juni 1978 kündigte der sozialdemokratische Bundeskanzler Bruno Kreisky eine Volksabstimmung für den 5. November 1978 über das Kernkraftwerk an. Das Referendum endete mit einer knappen Mehrheit gegen Zwentendorf. Fast zwei Drittel der Wähler (3,26 Millionen Menschen) gingen zu den Urnen und von diesen stimmten 49,5 % für und 50,5 % gegen das Atomkraftwerk. In Zwentendorf wurde nie Strom aus Kernenergie erzeugt. Bundeskanzler Werner Faymann erwartete von den Anti-Atom-Petitionen, die 2012 in sechs Ländern der Europäischen Union begannen, den EU-Ausstieg aus der Kernenergie. Der EU-Vertrag von Lissabon, unterstützt von über einer Million Petitions-Unterschriften, erhöhte den Druck der Anti-Atom-Aktivisten. (de)
