Summary
Rich people stick to green electricity target The Renewable Energy Sources Act has promoted the expansion of green electricity in Germany since 2000. In 2025, the share of wind, solar, biomass and co. in electricity generation was 58 percent, according to the energy industry. According to this, for operators of solar systems up to 25 kilowatts of installed power, which will be installed from 2027, a guaranteed remuneration of only a maximum of 36 months is planned.
Furthermore, Above all, the planned cancellation of the subsidy for new small solar plants from 2027 could collapse investments in billions and threaten tens of thousands of jobs in medium-sized and craft industries nationwide, warned the German Solar Industry Association (BSW). This is a disaster for renewable energy providers. Green economic politician Michael Kellner said the network package takes too one-sided consideration of the network operators. Lower compensation in the event of forced shutdowns For new solar and wind turbines built in regions that already have grid bottlenecks, there should be reduced compensation payments in the future if these plants have to be shut down temporarily in order to avoid grid congestion.
In addition, The Federal Association of New Energy Industry (BNE) criticized that the slowest grid operator continues to set the pace of the energy transition. “A modern industrialized country needs fast, digital and reliable connection processes throughout Germany,” said Robert Busch, Managing Director of ESD. They had six years to remove network bottlenecks. This is where the expansion is being trashed.
