8 Share of PV Power Supply Grows PV electricity becomes a pillar of German energy supply: in GWh Jan Feb Mrz Apr Mai Jun Jul Aug Sep Okt Nov Dez PV power production doubled in first five months of 2011 compared to same period in 2010 In 2011, approximately three percent of German power supply to be covered by solar power Source: UNB, EEX, own calculations BSW-Solar 2011, preliminary 8

9 PV System Prices Decrease Source: BSW-Solar Price Index [150 INR/Wp] Overall price reduction by almost 56% since Q2/2006 Average annual reduction of ca. 13% p.a. Q3/11: Average PV system price for systems < 100 kwp: 2,199 /kwp 9

10 Spot market PV module prices* fell below the 1 EUR/Wp mark for the first time in September 2011 [~70 INR/Wp] Source: eclareon/pvxchange spot market price data; (04/11/2011) Note: *Location Europe: Downstream margin, commission, logistics and packaging included (15 20 EUR ct/wp) 10

11 Changes to the German FIT (2012) The FIT law for 2012 continues in the spirit of the changes that were implemented in 2011 There continues to be an market based degression of the FITs The target corridor of 2,5 GWp to 3,5 GWp of new installations per year The base degression (9 %) will be applied in January be in-/decreased according to marktet growth A variable part of the tariff reduction will take effect in July, if there is strong market in the months before and vary between 0-15% Market observation: 5,3 GWp of new sytems installed throughout October 2010 to October 2011 Consequence: tariff reduction for 2012 to be: -15% 11

22 Act on the Promotion of Renewable Energies in the Heat Sector (Heat Act, EEWärmeG) Entered into force: May 2011 The obligation to use a share of renewable heat or cold is mandatory to new and existing private and public buildings undergoing major renovations. The public sector has to fulfil an exemplary role in using renewable energy sources for heat and cold. The exemplary role has to be ensured as well where buildings are rented or leased. Solar radiation shall meet the obligation, if at least 15% of the heat and cold demand is covered by this source. Example for minimum requirement for residential buildings: minimum aperture area of 0.03 m 2 per m 2 of effective area. Biomass shall meet the obligation, if at least 30% (gaseous biomass) or 50% (solid or liquid biomass) of the heat and cold demand is covered by this source. Regulatory offence can be punished with a fine of up to 50,000 Euro Evaluation in progress 22
