WIND ENERGY IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC EWEC2009 Czech Society for Wind Energy Ing. Vladimír Česenek ČSVE ČSVE
Content of presentation • Installed capacity in the Czech Republic • Trends in EIA assessment • Renewable in Pačesenergy commission conclusions • Approach of regional authorities to the wind turbines projects • Wind potential of unit regions
Positive Law 180/2005Sb. – support of the generation renewable energyand consequential regulations Good feed-in tariff for the electricity from wind energy 2,34 CZK/kWh in 2009 Feed-in tariff is guarantied for fifteen years Negative Myths about wind turbines Distorted information about the wind turbines economics Bad experience with the operation of previouslyCzech wind turbines prototypes Stimulus for branch development
Progress In 2006 rapidly grew up the interest of investors laical as well as scientific public is divided into two parts (according to TNS Factum 73% YES, 18% NO, 9% VIEWLESS) but it is absent the update information aboutwindenergy and OFFICIAL POLITICIAN SUPPORT After-effects organized protests of small portion of public argueing with chaotic and uncontrolled building up regional governments answer with restrictive concepts and studies this situation is reflected in project assessment Branch progress

Recommendations of Pačesesindipendent energy commission • Renewable energy must be developed as an important part of power mix • It is necessary to give public support to renewableenergies as well as got this support e.g. the nuclear power • Simplify the permitting procedure for renewable energiesaccording to requirements of EU directive 2001/77/ES – to simplify the building permission process • Start with effective ecological tax reform, which will transfer the load of tax on fossil resources • Start with extensive info campaign about the contributions of renewable energies • Design the strategic development of electrical networks with respects to incoming needs of renewable energies

Total surface of the Czech Republic 78 864 km2 Area with low wind speed - 72 500 km2 Area acceptable for wind turbines (≥ 6 m/s) 6 364 km2 National parks, nature parks 12 000 km2 (demand for setting up additional 2km buffer zone) 24 000 km2 (demand for setting up additional 5km buffer zone) 45 000 km2) NATURA 2000 14 630 km2 Air lane of birds 39 000 km2 forests 27 500 km2 military radars 42 000 km2 air-traffic corridors 5 200 km2 big airports + buffer zone (14 x) 9 900 km2 small airports + buffer zone (85 x) 6 600 km2 How much does place really remain of? ???? km2 Where have wind turbinesgot the chance?

50 m – 500 m – distance from ÚSES (area system of ecological stability) 3000 m – buffer zone around protected areas, birds areas, natural parks – these limits have no support in Czech law system 5000 m – buffer zone around religious buildings (churches, chapels,...) – it means almost every village!!!! Moravskoslezský region proposes:
600 m – buffer zone around populated areas (compare with previous point) and 1000 m around populated areas in recreational landscape units – it is in contrast of noise studies 5000 m – buffer zone around historical gardens and parks no wind turbines in harmonious landscape – unclearly interpretation, subjective measurement Moravskoslezský region proposes:
5000 m – buffer zone around significant recreational and spa complexes no wind turbines in areas with enhanced landscape perspective sensitivity – according this study it is more than 50 % of region!!! staking out buffer zones for areas with enhanced landscape perspective sensitivity: „According to Czech cultural continuum is therefore possible build in these areas only the buildings with outstanding qualities or symbolical meanings (e.g. tower for mobile operators) Moravskoslezský region proposes:
very significant cultural areas will have buffer zone 25 km !!! ......and the result of study.....? Moravskoslezský region proposes:
from total surface of region (5554 km2), is approximately 5537 km2 unsuitable for wind turbines sitting- 99,7% of region!!! it means, that exists only 0,3% of area (17 km2) as an area conditionally suitable for wind turbines. It is baffling, that these localities have low wind speed. Moravskoslezský region
analyses of Czech law system – disagreement with EU and act 180/2005Sb. obligations talks with new regional government communication with ministries and parliament drawing upon EWEA experience obtaining the support from EU offices Strategy of ČSVE(Czech Society for Wind Energy)
