German solar industry associations have warned the federal government against reducing support for roof-mounted PV systems, stating that such changes could slow deployment and affect electricity price stability. The warning has followed indications from the economy ministry that subsidies for small and rooftop PV installations may be reduced as part of a reform of the renewable energy support framework. Industry groups have said that continued support remains necessary to sustain installation rates for residential and small commercial systems. They have noted that roof-mounted PV contributes to electricity price stability because of low generation costs and supports participation by households and companies in the energy transition. Instead of reducing support, the associations have called for measures that improve the market responsiveness of smaller PV systems, including faster deployment of smart metering infrastructure. Separate survey findings cited by sector organisations have shown strong homeowner interest in PV adoption, with nearly two-thirds having already installed systems or planning installations within five years.
