These policies promote energy independence, high-tech jobs, and carbon dioxide reduction. European countries have issued PV subsidy policies to encourage people to install PV systems and adhere to the concept of saving energy and protecting the environment. Photovoltaic-popular European countries’ policy introductions are below. 1.
The subsidy is estimated to cost 1.2 billion euros, and it will be in effect until June 30, 2026. 1. Modification of related standards to promote the installation of photovoltaic systems in buildings
The subsidy reaches 100% for the battery in the case of poorer households and 90% for the rest. Households are required to install a battery along with the solar power system, while farmers have the option to only install PV systems on their roofs. The maximum installed capacity for the PV system is 10.8 kW compared to 10.8 kWh for the battery.
In addition, Italy recently introduced a new subsidy policy, providing 90% of the installed cost subsidy for the newly installed photovoltaic capacity for agricultural purposes, in order to support agricultural, aquaculture, and agro-industrial companies to invest in expanding photovoltaic power generation.
Two more rooftop PV subsidy programs are expected, one for businesses and one for industries, with total funds for the sector expected to surpass EUR 700 million and potentially reach EUR 1 billion. The Greek Ministry of Environment and Energy issued a public call for its EUR 238 million subsidy program for rooftop photovoltaics.
Government subsidies helped the PV industry establish economies of scale to compete in markets where PV power costs more than grid power. These policies promote energy independence, high-tech jobs, and carbon dioxide reduction.
