Translation of "Kostenrückgang" in English

This decrease was more than the decrease in costs.

Normally, in fair market condition, such a cost decrease should have direct impact on the profitability.

Even more crucial has been the enormous drop in the cost of transmitting information, which reduces barriers to entry.

The fastest rate of decline will come in costs of photovoltaics, which is today’s most capital?intensive energy system.

The fastest rate of decline will come in costs of photovoltaics, which is very capital-intensive today.

Intervention prices for butter and skim milk are still well above world market levels.

The main cause of these repeated disasters is the drastic reduction in sea transport costs, which have dropped by 30% in 10 years.

Encouraged by sharp reductions in households’ debt-service costs and a surprisingly steep fall in unemployment, they argue that the long nightmare has finally ended.

Even with the cost reductions expected from research and demonstration, the deployment of CCS will mean increased fixed as well as variable costs compared to power generation without CCS.

Network saturation in specific areas clearly justifies the introduction of DSM measures by distributors and a reduction in costs where subsidies have been granted (e.g. for islands).

The results of the latest calls for tender seem to show these costs to be falling appreciably, in particular due to the effects of competition for a product which is becoming technologically mature.

Industry expects costs to fall further based on the growth driven by current government support policies, reforms and removal of market barriers.

This decrease in costs was mainly due to the decrease in raw material prices, especially those of nickel, which has an unstable price dynamic.

Thus, even if the cost of cells might increase as a result of measures, the overall decreasing trend of prices should result in decreasing costs of modules.

However, as described in recital (565) above, the investigation established that Union industry sales price decreased even more than its average cost of production and therefore such decrease in costs was not reflected in the Union industry' profitability.

The same party also objected to the conclusion in the same recital that the Union industry was not able to benefit from cost decreases due to the price pressure of the subsidised imports.

The drop in costs benefited both: all local as well as Chinese producers, not only the complainant.

Therefore the breakthrough in profitability was not exclusively based on the drop in costs but was rather the result of a change in the pricing behaviour of the complainant.

However, the Union industry was forced to decrease its sales prices more than the decrease in costs, in view of the expansion of the low-priced Indian imports in 2009.

If in 2009, the 11,5 % decrease in costs matched with a 11,5 % decrease in sales prices, in 2010 and during the IP, the Union industry experienced a sharp increase in costs and could only slightly increase its prices to cover the extra costs.

The same party also objected to the conclusion in the same recital that the Union industry was not able to benefit from cost decreases due to the price pressure of the dumped imports.

Thus, even if the cost of cells might increase as a result of measures, the overall decreasing trend of prices should result in decreasing costs of modules.

Especially in 2009 the Union industry was forced to decrease its sales prices more than the decrease in costs, in view of the expansion of the low-priced Indian imports.

Linking heating and cooling with electricity networks will reduce the cost of the energy system – to the benefit of consumers.

Gains in the energy efficiency of future plants and reductions in future CO2 capture costs are highly probable and certain to strongly reduce CCS costs.
