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
Energy Policy White Paper, which is being developed at the time of writing
(June 1999), will provide the general framework for the future role of energy
efficiency and renewable energy in the Czech Republic. In addition, it is
necessary to develop specific policies. The National Energy Efficiency Study
aimed to support the Czech government in the formulation of energy efficiency
and renewable energy policy. The National Energy Efficiency Study has
resulted in the following documents: (1) The Energy Efficiency Action Plan
focuses on promotion of energy efficiency in end-use (this report); The
Renewable Energy Action Plan (separate report; ECN-C--99-064) deals with
policy on promotion of renewable energy production. These two Action Plans
provide policy makers in the Czech government with essential information on
potentials, targets, budgets and recommended policy instruments. The core of
the Action Plans is the list of concrete policy actions, ready for
implementation; and (2) The National Energy Efficiency Study NEES (separate
report; ECN-C--99-063). This report is the background document to the two
Action Plans. 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. Also, it includes recommendations for financing schemes
to overcome the investment constraints in the Czech Republic. Finally, a list
of concrete projects is included to support project identification
