The world's largest solar market in Germany from April onwards, reductions in two phases in solar power subsidies, a rate of more than 15% triggered the market worry about the future market developments, yet do not see the impact of the move in Germany, will be still some time to observe.
Motech, chairman of the left yuan Huai January 21 said the German solar subsidy cut in two phases rates will be smaller than the impact of a one-time cut. In his view, the German price adjustment, firms usually psychologically prepared for, and the exact rate is also lowered the expected range of vendors.
Left yuan Huai noted that although the solar market in Germany is still the main battlefield, but recently in Japan, the United States, mainland China and other places gradually enlarge the market, and vigorously promote the benefits, will also help disperse the impact of decline in subsidies in Germany, so solar power market conditions should not again return to to the previous trough.
He said that the current situation in view, the new German subsidy policies have limited impact on this year's solar market, Motech will continue in accordance with the original plan for expansion, and will not be affected.
According to the German Government's latest baked solar subsidy program, this year will be cut in two stages solar power subsidies to cover a smaller scale such as the construction of ordinary residential users and large-scale solar power plants. The first phase will be in April, the cut of residential and other buildings with solar electricity by 15%.
The second phase from July onwards, locking large solar power plants to buy back rates will be significantly revised downward by 25% if this year's total installed capacity of more than 3GW (10 billion watts), will cut rates again.
As the world's second-largest solar market, Spain in September 2008 have been substantially revised solar energy subsidy policy, starting in October that year caused by solar power market conditions, frozen, not only the market price in the doldrums, the relevant industry suddenly more "fallen from heaven to hell", the Germany also revised subsidy policy, triggering a high degree of concern about the market.
