Abstract:
Energy efficiency and renewable energy production contribute to the threemajor goals of the national energy policy of the Czech Republic: overall
competitiveness, security of supply; and environmental protection. Therefore,
the Czech Government aims to promote these two sustainable options. The
National Energy Efficiency Study has developed specific policies for the
promotion of end use energy efficiency and renewables. These are described in
two Action Plans, and in this report which serves as a background document.
It contains detailed information on options and measures, potentials,
barriers and policy instruments for energy efficiency and renewables. The
main part is a detailed outline for a new energy efficiency and renewable
policy, including a listing of actions for implementation. Also, it includes
recommendations for financing schemes to overcome the investment constraints
in the Czech Republic. Finally, a list of concrete projects is presented to
support project identification. In addition, two separate Action Plans have
been published: (1) The Energy Efficiency Action Plan focuses on promotion of
energy efficiency in end-use (separate document, ECN-C-99-065); and (2) The
Renewable Energy Action Plan (separate document, ECN-C-99-064) deals with
policy on promotion of renewable energy production. These two policy
documents should provide policy makers in the Czech Government with essential
information on potentials, targets, the required budget, and recommended
policy instruments. The core of the Action Plans is the list of concrete
policy actions, ready for implementation
