Reduced feed-in tariff in Germany

With regard to the changes to the solar feed-in tariff being discussed in Germany, Centrosolar says “the reduction currently being mooted will have considerable consequences, particularly for solar businesses with a strong emphasis on Germany.

“Overall, it will drastically weaken the German solar industry's ability to compete internationally and cost jobs. “

Centrosolar says it will await further developments on the solar feed-in tariff before it makes any forecasts for the current financial year.
