| Government source rejects heavy subsidy cuts in Germany |
|
The recent speculations that Germany might cut subsidies for solar energy sector significantly in the coming years is now rejected by a government source. According to the source is a decrease in input tariffs by 30% not conceivable. According to the source a number closer to 15% should be expected. The German solar companies have been under pressure this year due to speculation about how large cuts in subsidies will be. Possibly, this could become a catalyst for companies though the final announcement could be delayed as long as at May 2010. Feed-in tariffs is of great importance for the German solar industry, which employs 280 000 people and accounts for the majority of the solar energy produced in the world.
