More than 321.6 MW of September's new capacity was attributable to rooftop and ground-mounted systems up to 750 kW in size and built under the FIT scheme.
The Bundesnetzagentur also published new compensation rates which will begin this month. The monthly decrease of solar subsidies remains at 1.4% while fixed feed-in tariffs for rooftop systems will range between €0.0714/kWh and €0.0543/kWh, depending on system size.
