Shaping the solar future: An analysis of policy evolution,
A significant turning point in PV policy during this stage was the reduction in subsidies. In 2016, the NDRC issued a notice that modified the feed-in tariff benchmarks for onshore wind power and photovoltaic power generation. As a result, the feed-in tariff for solar PV power transitioned from being subsidy-driven to prioritizing grid parity.

6 FAQs about [Zambia s solar photovoltaic subsidy policy]
Does Zambia need energy subsidies?
The Zambian government sees renewable energy as critical for the country. A document on the vision 2030 of the country acknowledges the need need to diversify the electricity mix. A good start to look for subsidies would be the government, but also NGOs provide energy subsidies in Zambia.
Will Zambia increase its solar power capacity by 2030?
The Zambian government has set a target to increase its installed solar and wind capacity to 600 MW by 2030. However, the current installed capacity for solar photovoltaics is only 90 MWp, indicating significant underutilisation of Zambia's potential in the renewable energy sector.
Are solar products tax free in Zambia?
The Zambian government made certain aspects of solar products duty and VAT exempt. Energy efficient lighting lamps, discharge lamps, solar batteries and inverters for solar power are duty free (the effective rate). Zero VAT ratings exist for ‘Energy Saving Appliances, Machinery and Equipment’, which includes solar panels and batteries.
What are the different types of solar energy technologies in Zambia?
There are two main types of solar energy technologies: photovoltaic (PV) and concentrating solar power (CSP). Photovoltaics have high potential in Zambia, and this technology is discussed in this Chapter. CSP technology is not expected to be implemented in Zambia.
Will photovoltaic technology be implemented in Zambia?
Photovoltaics have high potential in Zambia, and this technology is discussed in this Chapter. CSP technology is not expected to be implemented in Zambia. Photovoltaic technology exploits global horizontal or tilted irradiation, which is the sum of direct and diffuse components (see Equation (1) in Chapter 2.1.3).
Can battery storage be used with solar photovoltaics in Zambia?
The Zambian regulation foresees customs duty and VAT exemptions for most equipment used in renewable energy or battery storage projects. Detailed information is provided in In this section, we discuss the opportunity of battery storage in combination with solar photovoltaics from a financial point of view.
