Italy "green certificate" wind power policy

Global wind energy association (GWEC) a report: in 1999 Bersani decrees issued, promoting power market is gradually liberalization, will renewable energy access network to encourage development of renewable power, and practice a renewable energy quotas. The ordinance to power operators and importers from renewable energy production of a certain percentage of electricity. "Green certificate" system (Green certificates) come on stage is to implement this goal. From renewable energy power since the implementation of 2% of the year by year.

In January 2001, Italy in "green certificate" issued on the basis of renewable energy mechanisms to replace the abolition of the 1997 CIP6 mechanism, as the supplementary quota system.

Italy "2008 fiscal act and December 2009 issued" ministers to make residential wind generator "adopt quota increases, makes 2007 ~ 2012 years in quota growth for 0.75% respectively. Equivalent to 2009 increased 5.3%, 2010 6.05%, expected for 6.8 billion by 2011.

"Green certificate" system (Green certificates) windmill generator evolution

, "green certificate" characteristic

At the beginning of 2008, "green certificate" price for 1 MWh (mw), for wind turbines manufacturer convenient calculation the certificate number, each station depend on their own net technology power-demand multiplied by a parameter. Ofterrestrial wind, parameters of 1.0; Sea is 1.1.

, "green certificate" the value and price

At the beginning of 2008, "green certificate" TSO (GSE) by small wind turbines authentication and enacted, the reference price for the first year of 180 pounds MWh and later annual electricity/average. This reference price every three years by the GSE do an adjustment to ensure adequate fund.

2009, "green certificate" after another innovation: give power producers and distributors stipulated by 2012, from renewable energy power (or purchase of "green certificate") to achieve a specific wind turbine generator amount. For renewable power generation company, which means "green certificate" the sale will more power distributors in between, rather than power producers. However, the relevant measures to further implement the operational details are still pending.

In the European Union Renewable Energy Renewable Energy home wind power generator instructions (EU Directive) under the provisions of Energy consumption, Italian eventually, Renewable Energy must be from 2005 5.2% increased to 17%.
