Photovoltaics: More than 160,000 funding commitments

According to the Climate Ministry, more than 160,000 funding commitments were made this year Photovoltaics (PV) systems with a total volume of 600 million euros. The ministry announced that all private applications had been approved and the funding record from 2022 had been exceeded. The resulting annual electricity generation corresponds to the average consumption of more than 800,000 households.

The path to solar power for private individuals will be easier in the future. As reported, from 2024 there will be no sales tax of 20 percent for small PV systems up to 35 kilowatt peak. A funding application for private individuals is no longer necessary.
