Climate: Temperate continental — eastern lowlands (Burgenland, Niederösterreich) face accelerating drought · Evaporation: 600–800 mm/year (typical Austria) · Water stress: medium

Austrian water utilities, biogas operators, and (increasingly) agricultural operators in the eastern lowlands deploy hexagonal floating covers for algae control, heat retention, and evaporation suppression.
