  3. The Czech Republic is located in Central Europe and our city Jindřichův Hradec issituated insouth Bohemia.

  6. Through Jindřichův Hradec drives a historicalsteamtrain.

  7. Thereareseveral power plantsforrenewableresourceshydroelectricandsolar,andpowerplantsofcombustionbiomass. JINDŘICHŮV HRADEC ŠEVĚTÍN BIOMASS LIPNO SOLAR HYDROELECTRIC

  8. Whichcompanyownsthe majority ofpowerplants in theCzechrepublic? ČEZ • = České energetické závody • Wasfounded in 1992 • Isthe most dominant producerelectricity in theCzechRepublic • Simpleeffortsthatmakessmallimpacts on environment produceselectricityalso fromrenewableresource

  9. Firstrenewableresourceisbiomass. BIOMASS • There is lots of energy in biomass • It has minimalecologicaldamage

  10. Whatisthebiomassmadefrom? BIOMASS • Basic source: plants • In theCzechrepublic • Wood • Straw • Agriculturalwaste • Animal’s excrements

  11. Biomass energy center in Jindřichův Hradec • Basic fuel: • Straw bales • Hay bales • Fast-growingplants • Fueliscollectedfrom70 km radius of the town Biomass incineratorisdirectly in ourtown.

  12. Biomass energy center in Jindřichův Hradec • April2009 it wasbought by CEZ Group • It covers 35% heat consumption

  13. Biomass energy center in Jindřichův Hradec • Yearlyitproduceshere more than 30 thousand MWh • Whichistheannualconsumption in 8,500 households

  14. HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANTS • Ourwatersheds aren’tadvatageous for hydroelectric power plants • Hydroelectric power is used as supplementary energy • Advantage is immediate use Second reneawableresource iswater.

  15. HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANTS • Most of them are situated on the Vltava river → theVltava cascade • 21 water cannons make 83 % renewableenergy ČEZ

  16. HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANTS • Long-time practice of tradition • In earlier times waterwas powerfor mills, sawmills, and hammer mills water mechanical power • The oldest hydroelectric power plant: built 1888 inPísek Historyofhydroelectricpowerplants

  17. Hydroelectricpower plant in Lipno • Lipno’s reservoir isour biggest man-madelake • In Šumava (South Bohemia) • Use: • Summer recreation • Cruise on lake • Fishing In our region is also located Lipenské lake, in which is power plant.

  18. Hydroelectric power plant in Lipno • Built in 1959 • Hight of dam is 26 m • Two parts: • Lipno I • Lipno II (the two parts are used for stable water flow)

  19. CEZ Group in Turkey • CEZ Groupowns business shares in companies, which run 8 hydroelectricpowerplants in Turkey • E.g. Bulam in southeastTurkey CEZ suppliesnatureconservativealso in otherstates – forexample in Turkey.

  20. SOLAR POWER PLANTS • Environment: theclearestandthe most environmentallyfriendlyway • Highpotential in future The last renewableresourceis sun enegy.

  21. SOLAR POWER PLANTS • Solarcells • Firstsolarpowerplant isfrom 1997 Photovoltaic powerplant Dukovany

  22. SOLAR POWER PLANTS • Solar boom • Extremellylowpurchaseprices • Government’s plan: solar cells on roofsandfields • The same price was also for big power plants in country • Expensive energy→ high priceofenergy for comsumers Abuse oflowpurchaseprice!

  23. Whypeople destroyourlandscape???

  24. Photovoltaic plant in Ševětín • Wasfounded in 2010 • 60 ha • Isthe most advatageous locality In our region islocatedthethirdbiggestsolarpowerplant.

  25. Photovoltaic plant in Ševětín • Power 29,9 MW • Annual: consumptionfor 8 000 households

  26. Weshowedyou basic typesofrenewableresourcesused in our region, theirpossitiveeffects on environmentandalsosome negative effects. Theresrestill many environmentalproblemsaroundus.
