EEX: Comment On Draft Regulation For Innovation Tenders For Renewable Energy Sources

Date 11/07/2019

EEX commented on the draft regulation for the introduction of innovation tenders for new renewable energy sources proposed by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi). EEX is sceptical about the proposed fixed market premium based on produced energy to be not innovative. Instead, EEX is proposing to use a fixed market premium or investment promotion based on installed capacity. Hence level of support would be reduced to a minimum while market participation would be extended.
