The Research Concept

Abstract

The proposed research has a combined descriptive and exploratory purpose. The descriptive research covers the review of the renewable energy policy instruments supporting the development of offshore wind, large onshore wind, and solar PV projects. Feed-in tariffs policy instrument and its derivatives has been a very efficient way to develop renewable energy. However, role model countries in the energy transition such as Germany are now reducing the extent of their support. The research work describes this phenomenon and its consequences for the renewable energy project developers.
