The Bavarian Building Code (BayBO) of the Free State of Bavaria is a state law . It applies primarily to structures and construction products, but also to properties, systems and facilities that are subject to requirements under this Act.

Like other building codes, it regulates the requirements that must be observed in building projects.

Amendment of November 17, 2014

In the plenary session of the Bavarian State Parliament on November 12, 2014, a majority of the CSU decided to amend Articles 82 and 83 (so-called 10H rule). The change came into effect on November 21, 2014. It is the nationwide strictest distance rule for wind turbines .

Article 82 stipulates that the privileged outdoor area in accordance with Section 35 (1) BauGB for wind turbines is revoked if the distance to residential buildings in built-up areas or built-up districts is less than ten times the total height (hub height plus half the rotor diameter). The erection of such a wind energy installation within this distance is therefore only possible if the location is defined by a corresponding development plan for the interior area.

This restriction does not reduce the area available in Bavaria for the construction of new wind turbines as shown in the regional plans. In the wind power industry and by energy producers (such as Stadtwerke München ) this regulation is still rejected because it allows the affected communities to have an active say.

To November 19, 2014 was against the amendment of the Building Regulations popular action at the Bavarian Constitutional Court submitted u. a. by the former member of the Bundestag of the Greens , Hans-Josef Fell . On May 9, 2016, the court ruled that the regulation was constitutional. In particular, the court pointed out that a builder had no claim to the construction of the technically largest possible wind turbine or to maximizing yield.

Further court decisions meanwhile specify how the 10H rule will be applied. This includes B. a decision of the Administrative Court in Munich from 2019, which deals with facilities that were approved before the introduction of the 10H rule but not yet built.
