Electricity price cap & the wind-fall tax
The German electricity price cap limits the revenues of renewable power system operators generated on the market due to high and volatile electricity prices.
PAST EVENT
Webinar (2/2) - The German government wants to relieve private households and companies from the sharp rise in energy costs with the electricity, gas and heating price brakes.
For renewables, this means that wind power operators, for example, will have to transfer a certain portion of their revenues to finance the costs of the electricity price brakes. This levy applies to electricity generation from lignite, nuclear energy, waste, mineral oil and also renewables and is part of the Electricity Price Cap Act (StromPbG). Random revenues above a defined upper limit and of this 90 percent are skimmed off. The remaining 10 percent remains with the generator to provide incentives for efficient behavior in the market.
