Germany plans to scale back renewable-energy subsidies as surging solar output puts growing strain on the country’s power grid, @business reported. The policy adjustment comes directly in response to increased solar generation that has begun to overload transmission infrastructure. Officials have not disclosed the size of the planned reductions or a schedule for implementation.
Solar output in Germany has risen sharply in recent periods, creating mismatches between peak production and demand patterns that the existing grid was not built to handle. The subsidy changes are intended to moderate further expansion while the network is upgraded.
