Purpose | This Law governs the planning and the promotion of renewable energy sources. It introduces a support scheme for RES-electricity producers in the form of a premium tariff and a guaranteed feed-in tariff (for installations smaller than 500 kW). In order to qualify for government support, all renewable energy projects must win a bid in a public tender. The Llaw also provides the foundation for sub-statutory regulations and decrees, which contain specifying provisions on quotas and the support schemes. |
Relevance for renewable energy | The Law represents the first comprehensive codification of provisions concerning the installation and promotion of renewable energy systems. |
