Following the publication of a legal notice, a feed-in tariff has been set for photovoltaic panel systems, not covered by previous grant schemes, that are larger than 1kWp, but smaller than 40 kWp and for systems larger than 40kWp but smaller then 1MWp. The feed-in tariffs are €15c5 per kWh generated, and €15c per kWh generated respectively, and are guaranteed for twenty years, the Energy Ministry said in a statement. 

Applications are to be submitted to the Regulator for Energy and Water Services, and are being received with immediate effect.

Separately, a feed-in tariff of €16c5 has been set for residential photovoltaic panels’ scheme which was launched last June. This scheme covers 50% of eligible costs up to a maximum of €757 per kWp generated or up to a maximum of €2,300 for every system installed, and is guaranteed for six years.

These initiatives will further contribute to more positive results in the renewable energy sector while simultaneously contributing to the reduction of our carbon footprint.

More information can be obtained from the Regulator for Energy and Water Services at Millenia 2nd floor, Aldo Moro Street, Marsa or by calling 22955000.
