In Feed in market premium subsidies based on the energy produced multiplied by the positive difference between contracted tariff and average monthly tariff for electricity on CROPEX day ahead market. If the difference is negative power producer keeps the incomes. Possible usage of the funding instrument in the P2G context: Electric energy from RES facilities established by this mechanism may be used for producing green hydrogen, which is a significant input for P2G and RES plant determines the amount of electricity that will be sent to the grid, and what can potentially be used as a surplus. P2G and green hydrogen will become a very interesting option after the subsidization period for the RES facilities ends. The new Law on RES and CHP is in the final phase of preparation. As it is aligned with RED II directive, RES plants will have the right to skip the electricity supplier and directly contract electricity sale with any natural or legal person, which in this case may be P2G company.
