7月5日 - 德國國會(huì)議員提出3個(gè)月內(nèi)減少太陽能發(fā)電補(bǔ)貼，并為7月9日議會(huì)投票表決通過削減清除了道路。
今日議會(huì)兩院委員會(huì)批準(zhǔn)了該提案，改變了德國政府計(jì)劃削減太陽能發(fā)電入網(wǎng)補(bǔ)貼，屋頂設(shè)備系統(tǒng)減少16%，農(nóng)場設(shè)備減少15%，原工業(yè)和軍事用地減少11%。
    在柏林舉行的國會(huì)上議院聲明表示，此次削減，政府旨在追溯至7月1日，直到9月30日止，每個(gè)類都將縮減3個(gè)百分點(diǎn)，到那時(shí)補(bǔ)貼削減將全面實(shí)現(xiàn)。
    “這樣到本周末前就可為太陽能電力補(bǔ)貼最終改革清除道路，”環(huán)境事務(wù)的自由民主黨下院發(fā)言人托馬斯表示，他是總理默克爾下議院聯(lián)盟盟友。他在一份電子郵件聲明中表示，這是一個(gè)“公正的妥協(xié)”，為太陽能產(chǎn)業(yè)提供了一個(gè)“軟著陸”的機(jī)會(huì)。

    代表德國的16個(gè)州政府的上議院成員6月4日將原條例草案送交審議小組。默克爾的聯(lián)盟可以否決下議院。聯(lián)邦議院將于7月8日就修正法案進(jìn)行辯論并達(dá)成妥協(xié)。上議院定于7月9日進(jìn)行投票表決。

    德國東部抗議進(jìn)一步縮減補(bǔ)貼。德國東部是許多國家太陽能產(chǎn)業(yè)基礎(chǔ)中心。默克爾政府說，必須大幅削減補(bǔ)貼，因?yàn)樘柲苊姘宓膬r(jià)格已經(jīng)下降了49%多，導(dǎo)致了德國太陽能市場產(chǎn)能相對(duì)過剩。

    July 5 (Bloomberg) -- German lawmakers proposed easing reductions in solar-power subsidies for three months and cleared the way for parliament to vote on the cuts by July 9.

    The proposal, approved today by a committee of both houses of parliament, changes a government plan to trim subsidies for solar power fed into Germany’s electricity grid by 16 percent for rooftop equipment, 15 percent for farmland and 11 percent for spaces such as former industrial or military sites.

    The reductions, which the government aims to introduce retroactively to July 1, would be scaled back by three percentage points for each category until Sept. 30, when the full cuts would kick in, according to a statement by parliament’s upper house, the Bundesrat, in Berlin.

    “This clears the way for the final reform of solar-power subsidies before the end of this week,” said Thomas Kauch, environmental affairs spokesman in the lower house for the Free Democrats, Chancellor Angela Merkel’s junior coalition ally. It’s a “fair compromise” that offers a “softer landing” for the solar industry, he said in an e-mailed statement.

    Upper-house members, who represent the 16 German state governments, sent the original bill to the reconciliation panel on June 4. Merkel’s coalition can reject the compromise in the lower house, or Bundestag, which will debate the amended bill on July 8. The upper house is scheduled to vote on July 9.

    Resistance to the deeper subsidy cuts centers on eastern Germany, where much of the country’s solar industry is based. Merkel’s government says subsidies must be pared because solar- panel prices have fallen by as much as 40 percent, causing overcapacity on the German market.
