Switzerland sustains 2021 PV with CHF 470 million
- In 2021, Switzerland will certainly give a total amount of CHF 470 million ($512 million) to advertise the building and construction of photovoltaic plants. According to the Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE), this would certainly allow "the waiting listing for one-off settlements for photovoltaic or pv systems to be totally removed" for the very first time since 2008.
Plant operators who had actually submitted their application by the end of March 2020 will certainly receive verification for the payment for little photovoltaic or pv plants (KLEIV) by the end of the year; the overall amount paid will certainly be CHF 130 million. In 2021, CHF 270 million are offered for KLEIV.
Because February 2020, the waiting listing for the one-off repayment for huge photovoltaic systems (GREIV) has actually been minimized. The 2020 funding quantity for the GREIV is around CHF 257 million, and also this year around 2,400 systems with a capacity of 713 MW will get a funding commitment. For 2021, around CHF 200 million are readily available for GREIV.
In 2020, 147 solar systems with an ability of greater than 100 kW (cumulative 41 MW) were included in the feed-in tariff system (KEV). These are installations that were registered by June 30, 2012. Because that day, no new installments have been included in this supporting system.
In 2020, around 22,400 brand-new systems for electrical power manufacturing from renewable energies were funded. This implies that an overall of greater than 85,000 subsidized systems are currently in operation, generating virtually 9 percent of Switzerland's power intake.
Since January 2018, Swiss consumers need to pay a grid additional charge of CHF 0.023 per kilowatt hour to fund power production from renewable resources, electrical energy effectiveness procedures and also water contamination control actions.
