Korea will comeback to FiT incentive system for solar power again?
Korea
Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy plans to implement the project
"re 3020"
re
3020 project is scheduled to start in earnest in 2018 with the plan
to expand the current 7% of new and renewable energy to 20% by 2030
this
plan to install new facility of 36.8GW of solar power & 16.7GW of
wind power and aim to achieve 36.5GW and 17.7GW respectively until
2030
The
major players in this project are major power producers and public
corporations including KEPCO, and they plan to lead them to 24.1GW,
which is close to 50%
The
remaining 50% will be led by private operators. For this, the central
government is considering regulatory reforms such as introduction of
the FiT system
If
the FiT incentive system for renewable energy is introduced again, it
will be resurrected within eight years after the former President Lee
Myung Bak abolished the FiT system
Currently,
the National Assembly has a large number of opposition parties, and
it is not yet clear whether this policy, which requires revision of
the law, can be implemented
So
far, it's an early point to applaud
