I was wondering if Germany has passed any laws that would encourage the use of wind energy for electricity, et
I know that Germany is the leading nation in prodcucing electricity, etc from Wind energy. But the govt should have passed some laws taht would encourage wind power right? Also, are the ppl taht use wind power given subsidies, etc
Is there smth on the internet where i can find laws and regulation, etc related to this?
Thanks in advance for ur help.
Yes.
The main law is one which says the electric power companies have to buy any excess power generated by someone who builds a renewable energy source.
Some States in the US have similar laws. But in Germany it's nationwide and the law specifies a price which is reasonable for the power companies while being enough to encourage construction of renewable energy sources.
