China goes the feed in rout!
This news, just out from Kit Temple and the ENF Gang (I really like these ENF people!!) really cements the certainty I have that something amazing is happening now! Ok, so they're not as big as Europe (France's sizable FeedIns have been mentioned here recently, and even they pale to the Italian F.I.T's), but still impressive and exciting! The Sino tariffs will be between €0.05 and €0.07 per kWh, and are expected to come into force early next year at the same time as China's new renewable energy laws. Can't wait to see those! |

Called feed-in tariffs, they are in use in Germany and Japan and being looked at seriously by several US states and some of our Provinces.
