The Czech government is currently studying multiple proposals to simplify the approval process for new photovoltaic power plants, aiming to raise the threshold for electricity tax and installed capacity to 100 kilowatts, while eliminating the problem of double taxation for photovoltaic supporting energy storage projects. The Economic Committee of the Czech House of Representatives has expressed support for the proposal to accelerate the construction of photovoltaic power plants. The Czech House of Representatives, as the core permanent institution of the lower house of the country's parliament, supports raising the current tax threshold for 50 kilowatts of electricity to 100 kilowatts during the review of the revised draft of the Building Law. The committee also agreed to another proposal to prevent double taxation when constructing photovoltaic power plants and battery energy storage systems simultaneously on the same plot of land.

Jan Krzymaj, Executive Director of the Czech Photovoltaic Association, stated that since the new government takes office at the end of 2025, the association will continue to communicate with the government and discuss measures to simplify the approval procedures for photovoltaic power plants. The association has always advocated raising the installed capacity threshold for photovoltaic project owners to pay electricity tax to a peak of 100 kilowatts; And work together with the Czech Energy Storage Association to actively promote the solution to the problem of repeated taxation of energy storage batteries.

Kerchmaj stated that both the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Finance have approved the relevant plan, and the terms jointly drafted by all parties have been successfully passed by the Parliamentary Economic Committee. If the committee recommends the implementation of the relevant revised draft, it is highly likely that these provisions will be approved for implementation. The formal legislation of relevant proposals still needs to go through multiple rounds of review procedures, including the second, third, and final readings in parliament, before being submitted to the Senate for review. According to Kirchmarj's prediction, the relevant bill is expected to pass the review within the year and officially come into effect next year.Editor/Gong Ziwei
