For installations above 500 kilowatts the specific conditions will be defined in a set of specifications with the bidding round. So far the conditions for direct selling where not defined in the French Energy Transition Law from last year.
The regulations affect new installations. Existing plants are allowed a unique choice between the direct selling and the feed-in-tariff for three years.
Regulation subsitutes the T5 tariff
The direct selling ruling substitutes the former feed-in-tariff T5 for installations up to 10 MW in the amount of 0,0596 Euro/kWh.
