"All measures studied indicated that is achievable, based on the responsibility of municipal, regional and federal governments. Public authorities have the power to allow solar energy systems to become more attractive for the population. This study shows the best ways to do this," Barbara Rudim, leader of the Greenpeace campaign, told a press conference.
The study shows that if the taxes are reduced on raw materials, the governments might temporarily lose revenue but this would be compensated in the long term by the creation of jobs, economic growth and the natural tax increase this would lead to.
These incentives are also considered as being good for the environment, said Greenpeace. The report pointed out that if more people generate more energy from the sun, the government will be able to reduce energy subsidies and cut the emissions from power generation plants.
