Chancellor Angela Merkel and German states at a meeting Tuesday night came close to a final compromise on the EEG reform that foresees a change towards tenders in the renewable support system, and includes 2.8GW in annual onshore wind auctions, 600MW PV tenders a year and maintains a 15GW accumulated offshore wind target for 2030.
“However, the key points are still a bitter compromise for our sector,” says Hans-Dieter Kettwig, managing director at German wind turbine maker Enercon.
