Power equipment industry: domestic formulated feed-in tariff

National Development and Reform Commission today published on the website on improving solar PV feed-in tariff policy in the notice to develop a unified national benchmark solar PV tariff.

In accordance with the average social capital and operating costs, refer to the tender price of solar Photovoltaic Panels power plant, as well as China's solar energy resources, solar power for non-tender the project to implement a unified national benchmark price. Specific details are as follows:

1) July 1, 2011 previously approved construction, December 31, 2011 put into operation, I appointed yet approved price of solar photovoltaic power generation projects, unified tariff approved for the 1.15 yuan per kilowatt-hour (including tax, the same below).

2) July 1, 2011 and later approved solar photovoltaic projects, and July 1, 2011 previously approved but as December 31, 2011 has not yet been put into the solar photovoltaic power generation projects, except Tibet still performs per kilowatt The tariff is 1.15 yuan, the remaining provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) tariff according perform one yuan per kilowatt-hour. In the future, the NDRC will vary according to the cost of investment, technological progress and other factors adjust.

Through the concession tender to determine the owners of solar photovoltaic power generation projects, the implementation of tariff at the bid price, bid price shall not be higher than the benchmark price of solar power inverter.

Enjoy the central financial subsidies for solar photovoltaic power generation projects, its grid electricity by the local desulfurized coal tariff execution. Solar photovoltaic power generation projects tariff higher than the local desulfurized coal tariff part, based upon the "renewable energy prices and cost sharing management pilot scheme," the relevant provisions, through the national renewable energy tariff levied additional solutions.
