SUBSIDY SCHEME PROMOTION RENEWABLE ENERGY (STIMULERINGSREGELING DUURZAME ENERGIE, SDE+)
|
Renewable energy sector
|
|
Type of measure
|
Exploitation grant. The total budget available for the SDE+ scheme is determined annually. All sustainable energy options compete with each other for the available budget. The scheme is only open to categories of installations which are unprofitable giving existing market conditions. On the basis of an individual grant the production of renewable energy will be subsidized up to a maximum of 15 years. The amount of subsidy is dependent on the difference between the cost of producing sustainable energies and the market price.

Environment related objective

|
To compensate industry for increased electricity costs that are caused by a cost pass through of CO2 costs that arise from the participation of power plants in the EU emissions trading scheme (EU ETS). For some industry sectors these increased electricity costs have a substantial effect on their global competitiveness, causing production and/or investments in these sectors to shift to regions outside the EU that are not subject to a similar carbon policy regime

Coverage of the measure
|
|
REGULATION ON ENVIRONMENTAL INVESTMENT DEDUCTION (MIA) AND ACCELERATED DEPRECIATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL INVESTMENTS (VAMIL):

Type of measure
|
The subsidy is granted as a tax measure. For environmental investment deduction the advantage for the recipient is a reduction in the firm's tax burden in the form of a reduction in the amount of tax (MIA). The environmental investment deduction for capital equipment of the "Milieulijst 2019", and Milieulijst 2020", falls in three categories: 13.5%, 27% and 36%.
For accelerated depreciation of environmental investments (VAMIL) the advantage for the recipient comes in the form of a liquidity advantage and a possible interest advantage. It enables the firm to freely determine the moment and extent of the depreciation of 75% of the environmental investments.
