The Federal Network Agency publishes the subsidy rates applicable to solar systems under the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) and the tenant electricity surcharge. The EEG subsidy rate is calculated based on the date of commissioning and the installed capacity of the respective solar system.
The EEG feed-in tariff subsidy is available for solar systems with an installed capacity of up to 100 kW. Regular subsidy rates apply to solar systems with partial feed-in (surplus feed-in). Increased subsidy rates apply to solar systems with full feed-in.
Funding rates – feed-in tariff for commissioning from 1 August 2025 to 31 January 2026 (Section 21 ( 1), Section 53 ( 1) EEG)
Market premium for solar systems up to 1,000 kW
The EEG market premium subsidy can be claimed for solar systems in direct marketing. The amount of the variable market premium is determined based on the respective "investable value" for the solar system. The investable values published here apply to solar systems with an installed capacity up to and including 1,000 kW (1 MW). Regular subsidy rates apply to solar systems in partial feed-in or surplus feed-in. Increased subsidy rates apply to solar systems in full feed-in.
