Why straffskattar you to solar power, the government?

on a Daily basis communicates to the media with a grim picture of the situation on the Swedish electricity market, with the runaway prices of electricity in the south of Sweden, a lack of capacity and imbalance in the national grid, oil, in Copenhagen, the risk of power rationing, and so on.

this is An important issue in this context is, of course, the future of the industry in Sweden, something that is not here.

We would like to draw attention to an issue of almost the same magnitude, using the opportunity to be able to make a contribution to their own security.

for Example, were denied the Pågen in Malmö, sweden in 2019, to carry out an investment on the basis of the kapacitetsbristen the network.

the Government-backed
In broad terms, the the the company which buys the electricity, is bound by the contracts, which may be a long time, maybe ten years old. When a company such as Pagen want to grow their business, so the answer is that it is not possible because of the company's electricity supplier is not willing to allot more electricity.

the Pagen will then have the opportunity to invest in its own power supply, for example, is based on the use of solar energy. The problem here is that the approach of the current regulatory framework straffbeskattas, to the extent that the option is to fall.

There are a lot more solcellskapacitet in Germany than in Sweden at the same time, the conditions are fairly similar,

the Government had, a few years ago, the harsh criticism of the so-called " solskatten, but it fell, as luck is part of it. The companies that had installed solar panels on a total of 255 kW and had to pay the tax, even if the capacity was divided into several smaller plants.

This is a slowdown of investment in renewable energy production.

Despite the fact that the government backed down on several sites for the same company, so solskatten still, if an individual plant has a capacity of 255 kW, which can easily be the case for a medium-sized and large companies to become self-sufficient in the production of electricity.

the 255-kW
Companies with their own energy is nothing new, but it is long-a common occurrence when it comes to the water. What is new is that companies are investing in facilities based on new technologies like solar power.

This is, so far, mainly on the basis of a sustainability policy, including, among other things, in the real-estate company.

at the same time, as the goals of sustainable development is driving these investments, and so resisted the extension of the use of the high level of taxation.

the Company, which will invest in solar power, with a capacity of 255 kW and must pay the 35 cents per produced kilowatt-hour of energy taxes, which is equivalent to spotmarknadspriset. It will be more expensive to produce your own solkraftsel than to buy the equivalent of kilowatt-hours of electricity.
Bureaucratic decision-making

There are certainly reasons to be concerned about what these additional charges will lead to.

tax Revenues are modest, as a company that dares to invest in it, to the extent that you will brytgränsen of the tax. The main consequence is that the full potential of environmentally friendly generation of electricity is prevented.

It is hard to find in this treasure that is well thought out, rather it appears to be the result of routine bureaucratic decision-making. For example, should be in the name of consistency, are also the ones who get the heat pump, are taxed on what they gain from it, but that is not the case, thankfully.

the Fact is that the increased use of solar power would be to be able to make a significant contribution to the energy supply of Sweden is doing that in many other countries.

China and Germany)
In China, it has increased the solar power capacity at an unprecedented scale, in order to reduce the dependence on fossil fuels. In Germany are solar panels a great deal of energy along with other alternative sources of energy.

There are a lot more solcellskapacitet in Germany than in Sweden at the same time, the conditions are relatively the same. France, the abolition of the tax on solar energy for its own use in the business world.

Many of the units have large roof areas, but can easily install solar power. The elimination of the skattespärren at 255 kW, could contribute to the smoothing out of imbalances in the electricity grid, and contribute to the climate objectives, to increase the credibility of energy policy, as well as contributing to jobs and growth.

So what are you waiting for? < / span> < / span>
