在西班牙,即使是可再生能源這樣的朝陽(yáng)產(chǎn)業(yè),也沒能幸免于該國(guó)的龐大債務(wù)和更嚴(yán)峻的經(jīng)濟(jì)困境的現(xiàn)實(shí)的波及范圍外。就在上個(gè)月,西班牙政府削減風(fēng)能,太陽(yáng)能的項(xiàng)目補(bǔ)貼。這一決定是與去年西班牙對(duì)可再生能源的態(tài)度形成鮮明對(duì)比,因?yàn)槿ツ晡靼嘌勒峁?5億歐元給可再生能源發(fā)電上。
據(jù)商業(yè)周刊報(bào)道,西班牙的最新能源計(jì)劃是“減少45%的太陽(yáng)能在農(nóng)場(chǎng)上電力補(bǔ)貼,25%的辦公工廠的大型電池板補(bǔ)貼,5%的家庭太陽(yáng)能用電補(bǔ)貼。
西班牙目前位列第二位最具有光伏發(fā)電能力的國(guó)家。但上周西班牙政府決定采用最新的政策,削減對(duì)可再生能源的補(bǔ)貼。據(jù)Bloomberg稱,政府部長(zhǎng)們和能源公司高層不能就現(xiàn)存太陽(yáng)能電廠的價(jià)格上達(dá)成一致意見。
補(bǔ)貼的減少可能對(duì)約600個(gè)光伏(PV)的太陽(yáng)能設(shè)備廠商來說是一個(gè)致命的打擊。根據(jù)光伏產(chǎn)業(yè)協(xié)會(huì)報(bào)道,這些機(jī)構(gòu)很可能因?yàn)樾抡邔?dǎo)致破產(chǎn)。
In Spain, even the rising industry of renewable energy is not immune to the realities of the country’s sizable debt and broader economic woes. Just last month, the Spanish government slashed subsidies for any new wind or solar thermal projects in the country. The decision was in sharp contrast to last year’s move on renewable energy, when the Spanish government provided 6.5 billion Euros to utilities as pass-through subsidies to those who are generating renewable energy.
According to Business Day, Spain’s newest plan on renewable energy will “reduce the premium above the normal electricity price guaranteed for new solar projects by 45 percent for solar or farms, by 25 percent for large panels on office or factory buildings, and by five percent for solar panels on homes.”
Spain currently ranks second among the countries with the most installed photovoltaic (PV) generating capacity. But last week the Spanish government decided to go ahead with the newest plan to cut subsidies after talks broke down over how to make broader changes to the policy on renewable energy subsidies. The discord arose, according to Bloomberg, when government ministers and energy company executives were unable to agree on prices for existing solar plants.
The subsidy reduction could prove to be a fatal blow for some 600 photovoltaic (PV) solar plant operators. According to the Photovoltaic Industry Association, those operators would be in danger of bankruptcy as a result of the new policy.
