Economy ministry set to unveil plan to speed up solar PV rollout

Tagesspiegel Background / 威力彩玩法

The economy ministry aims to speed up solar energy expansion in Germany with legislative reforms it calls 鈥渟olar package I鈥, which are set to be unveiled before the parliamentary summer break, . With the reform proposal seen by Tagesspiegel, the government aims to harmonise support for ground-mounted PV parks, simplify the expansion of rooftop systems, and more easily allow the use of so-called 鈥渂alcony PV鈥 plug-in solar installations.

The proposals are part of the economy ministry鈥檚 solar PV strategy, which it presented in May. It aims to simplify regulation, unlock new locations, and incentivise investments in the technology. Solar power will be one of the key energy sources of the future in Germany and greatly contribute to the goal of a share of 80 percent renewables in the country鈥檚 electricity consumption by 2030. A second 鈥渟olar package鈥 is to be presented at a later date. The economy ministry last week also announced there will be new government funding to rebuild the country鈥檚 solar industry.

Industry association BSW Solar welcomed the reported proposals. Removing hurdles to using suitable PV sites and cushioning increased capital costs are important prerequisites for being able to implement the government's goal of tripling the solar power capacity installed in Germany by the year 2030, said the association.
