Solar energy at its own expense Spanish people or against the Government Deal

Spain's climate to solar panel manufacturers offers great potential. In Germany, a family of four using solar energy can be reduced 30% of energy consumption. In Spain, the figure is three times in Germany.

In fact, the Spanish annual energy imports more than 80%, the cost over 40 billion euros, the equivalent of Spain's GDP by 4.5%. Supporters of the solar industry said the government should support the solar energy industry, providing supporting measures in order to achieve the EU's renewable energy targets. Soria also said that compared with traditional utility grid electricity is independent of solar power has become increasingly attractive forms of energy.

Once, solar panels cost prohibitive for many consumers. But in the past three years, the price of solar panels fell by more than half. To meet household use 240 watt solar panel kit online price of only 500 euros.

During the previous Spanish government, people can recover in about five years for investment in solar panels to save energy costs 1600-2100 euros. However, if the implementation of the new bill, the investment recovery period will turn 17 years. Under the new proposals, remote areas will be exempt from taxes solar energy, but also other consumer must within two months of the solar panel is connected to the national grid, so that the government taxed. In addition, the new proposal would allow homeowners to sell back electricity than necessary grid.

According to Reuters, the Conservative majority in the Spanish parliament, the new proposal is unlikely to undergo rigorous scrutiny, and the opposition is difficult to refute the views put forward tough.

Energy efficient installation company INEL CEO Sergio? Palmer (Sergio Pomar) said: "If I spend € 600 to install flexible solar panels , have been fined € 6,000,000, let the law to decide whether it is reasonable it. "

Institute for Sustainable Development and International Relations Senior Advisor Trisha? Ribera (Teresa Ribera) against individual users should pay for the solar power system operation, and other forms of energy subsidies cost point of view, stressing that the law may lead to universal protest. She said: "This method of energy efficiency and cost illogical, just like riding a bicycle requires human they do not pay a fee to use the same gas station, this can easily lead to the people's revolt against the government."

Spain completed the new proposal will also affect the EU 2020 renewable energy target of 20% achieved. Renewable energy advocates Mario? Sanchez (Mario Sanchez) said: "If we continue to burn more coal, and stops the installation of renewable energy equipment, then the indicators are to be in non-compliance risk."
