In a decision worthy of criticism in the case of the commercial-accounting transit in the #EEG 2009, the BGH decided that a #biomass cogeneration plant is only eligible for funding in the amount of the net electricity generation, i. e. after deduction of the #plant's own consumption. This also applies if the biomass cogeneration plant has purchased the #electricity requirement externally. For this the BGH strives for a trick on the #KWKG and lets a clean demarcation with the promotion systematics be missing and this always with the argument to avoid unwanted loads at the expense of the end consumer.
