While the majority of the regulations related to solar power installations are at local and state levels, there

are federal actions that impact solar power generation and development. For example, the U.S. Treasury,

the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy administer programs that provide

grants, financial assistance and, in some cases, guidelines for the development and installation of solar

power systems. As a result, these programs can influence future regulatory developments at the state and

local level.

For example, the Federal Energy Policy Act of 2005 provides tax credits for residential energy property,

including solar-electric systems, solar water heating systems and fuel cells. Under this law, a taxpayer

may claim a credit of 30 % up to a maximum credit of US$2,000 or US$500 for each 0.5 kilo-watt of

capacity, which include labour costs for onsite preparation, assembly or original system installation, and

for piping or wiring to interconnect a system to the home. If the federal tax credit exceeds tax liability, the

excess amount may be carried forward to the succeeding taxable year. In addition, several states, includ-

ing California and Colorado, have issued incentive programs to promote Renewable Energy Solutions.

Furthermore the U.S. Department of Energy has issued a Solar Energy Technologies Program (“SETP”

or Solar Program) which is aggressively funding a diverse set of photovoltaic technologies that have po-

tential application in a range of markets. SETP works to develop cost-competitive solar energy systems

for the United States. More than US$170 million is spent each year in research and development on two

solar electric technologies with the greatest potential to reach cost competitiveness by 2015: photovoltaic

(PV) and concentrating solar power (CSP).

China

The focus of AEG PS Group's solar solution business in Asia is the Chinese market. The legal framework

for the Renewable Energy Solutions sector is laid down in the Chinese Renewable Energy Law (“RE

Law”) from 2005 which came into effect on 1 January, 2006. The RE Law aims to further promote the

growth of renewable energy in China, to encourage the development of power grids and to support the

power grid industry in purchasing renewable energy despite its higher generation costs. The RE Law it-

self is a framework law, which provides the provincial governments with a mandate to develop renewable

energy feed-in tariffs and quotas for the purchase of renewable energy. The energy policies which have

been stated in the RE Law have subsequently been implemented by way of a large number of ministerial-

level regulations and provincial implementing rules. An essential rule in the RE Law is the so called

“mandatory purchase and connection clause”, which requires state-owned grid enterprises to purchase all

power produced by renewable energy sources and also provide grid connection services for the generation

of power with renewable energy. If power grid enterprises fail to purchase renewable power in full, the

national power supervisory institutions will order them to make respective corrections within a stipulated

period of time.

Under the institutional framework of China, the central government is responsible for the formulation of

the national regulations which guide the provinces with regard to the implementation process of the RE

Law. The central government gives instructions regarding pricing, cost-sharing, taxation and the project

approvals process. However, since there are great disparities between various provinces in terms of re-

source availability, industrial capacity and demand, in some cases provincial governments have needed to

formulate their own detailed provisions for their area within the central government's general policy

framework. These detailed provisions may include such issues as provincial management provisions for

particular renewable energy technologies, financial support for pilot projects and preferential treatment in

other areas such as land access. The Renewable Energy Law requires the relevant central authority to be

responsible for drafting these regulations.
