Poland is introducing feed-in tariffs to support its renewable energy sector
The feed-in tariff is to be granted only to “newly-built installations”. The feed-in tariffs will apply for 15 years counting from the date of putting the installations into service, however no longer than until 31 December, 2035. This term is rather vague, but after 1 January 2016 it seems to cover installations that will start operating. The feed-in tariff amount will depend on the size and type of the installation.
The Polish lawmakers have introduced legislative mechanisms whose aim was, on the one hand, to prevent an uncontrolled increase in the number of electricity producers attracted by feed-in tariffs, which are relatively high considering the prices prevailing in the Polish electricity market, and on the other hand, to enable fast adjustment of the feed-in tariffs should, for example, the prices for PV modules decrease.
