Taiwan’s FIT has proposed changes to the country’s feed-in-tariff (Ministry of Economic Affairs) scheme, which would see a 6% mark-up for high-efficiency modules scrapped and a module recycling fee introduced. The markup currently benefits the country’s struggling manufacturing industry, which already faces competition from China. The module recycling fee was suggested at CNY1,000 ($145) per unit, although the government did not specify what a unit was or who would be liable for the fee. The proposals will be subject to further debate.
