The energy ministry is considering to offer half of a 2.5-GW amount in freed grid capacity resulting from an increase of capacity limits at existing substations to three self-producing categories.

Residential RES producers would, according to the ministry’s plan, be offered 40 percent of this freed 1.25-GW capacity, self-producing farmers will be eligible for a 30 percent share, while the other 30 percent will be reserved for self-producers in the secondary and tertiary sectors, as well as energy communities.

The other 1.25 GW of the 2.5-GW capacity total is planned to be allocated exclusively to companies qualifying for subsidy programs supporting PV installations.

Also, the power generation limit is planned to be maintained at 10 KW for residential producers and increased to 100 KW for all other aforementioned categories.
