☀ France’s energy ministry is considering cutting state aid to rooftop solar projects to lower government spending – but this threatens stunting the sector’s development Renewable lobbies SER and Enerplan received a letter last week from the French general directorate for energy and climate (DGEC) requesting their opinion on revising rooftop solar tariffs currently available for projects below 500 kW The ministry is considering either lowering the maximum size of projects under the scheme to 100 kW or limiting the volume of projects that could receive the tariff “to see where savings could be made to the state budget” “This is outrageous,” said Jules Nyssen, head of SER, adding that both options would “put the brakes on rooftop solar deployment” Capping the volume of rooftop projects that could receive a feed-in-tariff would lead to fewer projects being developed, because bidding for a CFD was “too complex for small projects”, David Gréau, head of solar affairs at Enerplan said Meanwhile, limiting the volume of projects would have a “stop and go effect”, given that the maximum yearly threshold would likely be reached in the first four months of the year Article en français : https://lnkd.in/eHyugdNM Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/eBn4KVQb

[𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗘𝗗𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 📖] The April issue of #pvmagazine! In this edition, we share first-hand accounts of the challenges community acceptance can pose to renewable energy projects, and we look at growth in community solar models both as an antidote to this and a novel way to deliver clean energy direct to consumers. We also highlight impressive progress for solar in Egypt, and look at how countries in Central Asia are beginning to realize their PV potential.
