“The build-up of wind on land is above a legally foreseen addition,” says BNetzA president Jochen Homann.
New onshore wind installations from Aug. 2014 to Jul. 2015 added up to 3.67GW as companies raced to build new wind parks before legislative changes lead to lower support levels.
The government in Berlin during a reform of its Renewable Energies Act (EEG) last year for the first time had established the target for onshore wind and with it a mechanism calling for a steeper degression in support when the target corridor is exceeded.
