Table 7 Classes of legitimacy according to their degree of normative binding
Very high | Hard taboo zones in terms of legal jurisdiction, exclusion is mandatory and legally binding |
High | High legitimacy for exclusion, but no specification for spatial unit. The installation of solar parks is not necessarily prohibited, but only permitted in exceptional cases |
Medium | Medium legitimacy, no general exclusion, exceptions possible. There are no hard criteria for exclusion, but permission is not granted per se for each site of these spatial units |
Low | No general exclusion, no direct criteria for exclusion but no allowance per se. This class contains spatial units where solar park installation is legally possible, as there are no plant-specific exclusion criteria related to solar parks |
