Sažetak

Whilst Germany’s transition towards renewable energy sources is gaining momentum, such as, new photovoltaic installations numbers have multiplied over past three years, new policies’ implementation is yet to be fully rolled out to all grid customer segments. First, this paper systematically lays out current developments in the areas of decentral renewable energies generation, electrification of heating & mobility, and supply grid operators. We carefully reflect on the institutional factors driving and shaping current developments. Second, the study focusses on grid customers’ perception of new legislation that imposes the installation of photovoltaic systems onto roofs. We find that despite a majority supports the ‘obligation to install’, other pull factors may still be more important in shaping the decision-making process towards purchasing a photovoltaic system.
