Energy Ministry clarifies no extra costs for solar panel rules
The Ministry of Energy and Water in Lebanon announced the regulation of installing solar panels with a capacity of less than 1.5 megawatts within a unified framework, without imposing additional costs on citizens. This decision is temporary until standards are issued by the regulatory authority for the electricity sector. The ministry confirmed that the technical and administrative procedures related to installing the panels, such as certifications and licenses, were previously required and will remain unchanged, and that there are no additional costs at the moment. However, the decision has faced widespread criticism from some officials and unions, who consider it dangerous and believe it increases citizens' suffering. They are calling for a reconsideration and for easing the procedures for installing solar energy systems.
