After long negotiations, the GROKO was able to agree on a far-reaching climate agreement.
“The current cap of 52 gigawatts for funding the expansion of PV systems will be lifted.”
Conversely, this means that after the total installed photovoltaic systems have reached 52 gigawatts, up to 750 kilowatt systems will continue to be supported. That's good news!
Things didn't move forward for a long time and the industry had to fear that nothing would happen. The limit would have been reached next year. “No mercy for solar funding”. Once the limit is reached, the solar industry should get by without any subsidies. Now something positive has happened in this matter.
The nature and extent of the expansion in the area of photovoltaics remains unclear. Even if it is not the expected leap forward and the climate package is criticized more poorly by critics, it is at least a step in the right direction. It could have turned out differently.
