The government will reduce the amount of financing a new green energy support program by almost a quarter (22%) - from 400 billion to 313 billion rubles, found out Kommersant. Thus, the authorities want to keep the rise in electricity prices within inflation. Investors in renewable energy sources (renewable) fear that the market will be monopolized due to the closure of part of the production.
The support program was calculated for 2025-2030. According to the sources of Kommersant, the threshold of investments for the construction of wind power plants (VES) will be 177 billion rubles, and on solar power plants (SES) - 106 billion rubles.
The decision was taken by the Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak and Yuri Borisov on March 11. It is noted that the Ministry of Economics offered more radical changes - to reduce the program of support for the OE-Energy halve, and the Ministry of Energy insisted on a third reduction.
Vygon Consulting is estimated that the cumulative IOWS will have to have 7 GW to 5 GW, and the specific costs of domestic SES and WES will grow by 10-20%. Investors of the Solar Energy Industry, which managed to enter new investment phases, still intend to continue to develop production, despite the decline in support, stated in the Association of Solar Energy Enterprises.
Earlier it was reported that the new UE support program at 2025-2035. Certain manufacturers perform targets for the export of green energy under the threat of fines. For SES and VES Penalty in 2025-2029. will be 10% of the guaranteed payment, in 2030-2032. - 21%, and in 2033-2035. Grow up to 33%. To be fined will also be for the use of foreign equipment. For low localization of EFF equipment, a fine for SES will be 85%, for VES and mini-hydroelectric station - 75%.
With a reduction in government support, such conditions are becoming completely irrelevant, they are considered in the Association for the Development of Renewable Energy (ARVE). Experts expect market monopolization due to the closure of part of the equipment production. "Invest billions of dollars in the country's economy for sale in the local market 25% of the annual production volume - a solution, inexplicable from an economic point of view," said ARVE.
