Germany’s Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK) has launched a request for expressions of interest (EoI) to boost the country’s solar PV manufacturing supply chain.
According to BSW solar, questions about the mobilisation of storage and the appropriate assessment of required market premiums and maximum bid values for commercial PV investments were largely left out.
An overwhelming majority of Germans believed that an accelerated expansion of renewables was important, but not everyone from this category agreed to install power plants in their neighbourhoods, according to KfW Research.
As Germany is pushing for its goal of producing 80% of electricity consumption covered by renewable energy in 2030, its Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) has announced its PV strategy to speed up PV installations.
