Private investment in the grid of the German-style solar admitted a problem

Trail of a sport utility vehicle speeding in the German state of Bavaria Straubing suburbs, the city of light and shadow disappeared in the vision. The car all the way forward line through one and a vast farmland, winter Germany's sun is not too abundant.

Around a pond, the German car Puke De (Klaus Burkart) unable to bear their own joy, pointing to the front 500 meters: that is my parents' house. "The house is, and that solar panels on the roof, but I am." Puke De said. At first glance, the two large roof dense black PV inverter shop.
In Germany, almost every private cabanas roof covered with solar power light board, issued by the electric or homegrown, or the Internet to buy the electric company.

"Those of us ordinary people on the investment in solar power generation accounted for about 50% of the total investment of solar power in Germany." Puke De slight smile, come up with one when he made the investment in solar research notes, start with his right.

Germany 2004 "Renewable Energy Law" modifications gave him a great deal of confidence, mainly because of high subsidies and ensure that such subsidies are valid 20 years. Subsidies tasted the sweetness of the German, they started to install solar power installations, the original farm into a solar power plant, causing pressure to the German power grid, and the German government also felt the financial pressure brought about by the subsidies.

"Since 2009, the law constantly modifying subsidies decline and electric issued only with investors before 2009 and will not be affected." Puke De felt very lucky.Germany solar grid tie inverter private investment Puke De worked at a fuel service company in Europe, the Netherlands due to work because living in Germany's neighbors.

In 2004, Germany was just great efforts to develop wind power, solar power accounts for only a small fraction of the German power grid, but since then the German government revised the "Renewable Energy Law, enacted in 2000 (Erneuerbare-Energien-Gesetz), start encourage private installation of solar power installations.

"Later, I will own research for two years." Po sip a Minzui to say, many solar manufacturers will provide free courses for learning the solar power, because you must make it clear what kind of roof for including roof angle and azimuth .

After two years of research, Puke De eventually in 2007 started to invest in solar energy, on the roof of his parents installed solar controller total capacity 45KWH, a total investment of 180,000 euros, 10,000 euros of capital, bank loans of € 170,000. Repayment by selling electricity in 18 years to pay off, and every year since then is the net profit. "But now every year in addition to the bank repayment, every year I will be remaining approximately € 5,000." Po said.

In this case, the new German network peak output power of solar installations reached 1.1 million kilowatts, an increase of nearly 30% compared with 2006.According to the introduction of the Po, then in 2007 the German market and photovoltaic products manufacturer in China, most of the private market welcomed the Japanese brand.

With the person to eat crab tasted the sweetness of solar power, more and more private use of their roofs or windows started to invest in solar power. "Some people have even started to farm rented farmers roof, install solar panels on its roof." Puke De quipped, "It is as the benefits of farmers can rely on their roof rent collection."
