In Germany, new-built small-scale PV systems (with a capacity below 30 kWp) should either be able to be curtailed remotel y, or must permanently limit power injection into the grid to 70% of rated AC capacity, the rest being either self-consumed or curtailed. This kind of capacity-based regulation is also applied in many U.S. net metering schemes.

6 FAQs about [New policy for small-scale household solar power generation for self-use with photovoltaic]

Can self-consumption reduce the cost of solar PV in Europe?

(9) Renewable energy progress report, SWD (2015) 117 final. (10) The PV Parity project has found that self-consumption extended by storage and demand response can reduce the additional system costs of the EU integration of solar PV at high penetration levels by around 20%. (11) Seebach, 2009, Costs and benefits of smart appliances in Europe.

What are the mechanisms promoting self-consumption of PV electricity?

Mechanisms promoting self-consumption of PV electricity are based on the idea that PV electricity will be used first for local consumption and that all this electricity should not be injected into the grid.

How much solar energy will be used in the 14th five-year-plan?

Many research institutes have made forecasts about future trends of solar energy utilization , , , and predictions suggest that more than 70% of the total newly increased capacity of non-fossil energy would be contributed by renewables exemplified by solar PV and wind power during the 14th Five-Year-Plan.

What is the average self-consumption rate of a PV system?

With demand-side response and decentralized energy storage (see section 3), the self-consumption rate of an average Central European household running a PV system can go up to 65-75%. In absence of such flexibility measures, however, residential consumers are more likely to obtain self-consumption rates in the range of 30% (see Box 2).

Are solar panels a good investment?

The first one is electricity bill savings since part of the electricity produced by solar panels is used for self-consumption, and the other is the extra gains by selling remaining electricity to the grid (all the generation is assumed for self-use if the generation potential is smaller than annual household electricity demand).

What is a type 2 solar power system?

Type 2: Above 100 kW without limitation, self-consumption is allowed and the excess PV electricity can be sold on the wholesale market directly or through an intermediary. A specific grid tax of 0.5 EUR/MWh has to be paid together with a 7% tax on the electricity produced.
