But the energy mix – the balance of sources of energy in the supply – is becoming increasingly important as countries try to shift away from fossil fuels towards low-carbon sources of energy (nuclear or renewables including hydropower, solar and wind).
Of the new solar power plants, 80,069 (96.7%) were from household rooftops, with a total output of 823.3MWp. The average size of domestic PV plants was 10.3kWp last year, up from 6.7kWp in 2022
Residential rooftop solar installations connected to the grid rose by nearly 70% over 2022, according to data from Czech Solarni Asociace (Solar Association). About 80,000 household roofs were covered by solar modules
affected by energy poverty, and there is a probability that household expendi-tures on energy in Czechia are increasing. Such households cannot afford to heat or cool their houses adequately in the different seasons (Karásek & Pojar, 2018). Energy literacy and adequate knowledge can enable a just energy transition, build resilient power
Síkela previously stated that the total amount of support with energy for the upcoming heating season will reach around CZK 11,000 for households with low consumption, around CZK 14,000 to CZK 15,000 for households with medium consumption, and up to around CZK 18,000 for households with the highest consumption.
One of the notable waste-to-energy projects developed by CEZ Obnovitelne zdroje sro is the Plzen Waste-to-Energy Plant. The plant uses municipal waste as fuel to generate electricity and heat. The plant has a capacity of 21 MW and can produce enough
According to a model put forward by the Coal-free Czechia 2030 initiative, a further 15 PJ could be generated by large-scale heat pumps in the same timeframe [16] in order to replace coal in CHP plants. The government decree on supported energy sources must be amended to include solar energy on the list of energy sources that will receive
The Czech Ministry of the Environment has revealed that it has secured new funds from the European Union for its New Green Savings program. It has unveiled plans to cut red tape and bring more households into the program from September. The urgency of last year''s energy crisis resulted in enormous interest in energy-saving subsidies.
According to the International Renewable Energy Agency, Czechia had 2,073MW of installed solar power at the end of 2020, 13MW less than it had at the end of 2019.

In the UK, solar battery storage is without a doubt becoming an attractive solution for households to reduce electricity bills and gain energy independence. Here in Oxford, Triple Solar has delivered this rooftop solar energy storage system to the family.
Households in the Czech Republic can receive hundreds of thousands of crowns in state subsidies for energy-saving measures. The program called "New Green Savings" (Nová zelená úsporám or NZÚ) offers financial support for a wide range of projects aimed at saving energy. The subsidies are not limited to solar panels or heat pumps, as commonly []
How does Bulgaria, a sunny country that until 2008 had a 0% share of solar energy, fit into the bigger picture? Between 2007 and 2017, there has been a significant change in the structure of energy derived from renewable electricity generation, data from Bulgaria''s National Statistical Institute reveals.The fastest growth rates were recorded between 2009 and

Jiří Beranovský from the company EkoWATT says rooftop solar panels could generate between 472 to 675 megawatts of electricity, which could cover between 120,000 up to 170,000 households. That means every fourth or fifth Prague household could only live on solar energy, he says.
Since its launch in 2014, the New Green Savings program has supported 180,000 households to the tune of CZK 22 billion. Its original focus was on energy savings in the residential sector through the renovation and construction of low-energy family and apartment buildings. However, most of the funding is now being used for rooftop PV rebates.
According to the Czech Solar Association, the dominant type of solar production in the Czech Republic is currently via small rooftop solar panels. The main growth in household photovoltaic energy installation was registered in the second half of last year, when energy prices started rising rapidly, the association states.

A total of 82,799 solar power plants were connected to the grid in Czechia last year. Image: CEZ Group Czechia recorded a significant increase in installed solar capacity last year, with about 970MWp of capacity added to the grid. However, the growth was mainly driven by household rooftop solar, according to the Czech Solar Association.
Czechia built around 1 GW of new PV plants in 2023, according to data from the Czech Solar Association (Solární Asociace). In total, 82,799 solar power plants were connected to the grid, with a combined total output of 970 MW. The nation achieved a record-breaking year with 145% growth, connecting 49,000 more power plants than it did in 2022.
The figures mark a period of rapid growth in Czechia’s solar market. The growth has been largely driven by residential PV, with most of the new installations (80,069) being domestic PV plants, supported by the country investing an additional CZK 55 billion ($2.5 billion) in its New Green Savings program back in March 2023.
The Czech Republic will have hard time looking for someone willing to invest in the sector," the Czech Solar Association Chairman Jan Krcmar said. Majority state-owned electricity producer CEZ (CEZP.PR) plans to invest $4.15 billion - four times its 2020 profit - into building 6 gigawatt of solar power capacity by 2030.
Solar energy has long been unpopular among Czech politicians since high compensation led to an uncontrolled boom in solar in 2009-2010, costing around 1.8 billion of euros in subsidies per year to the sector split between consumers and the government. The bill also raises special taxes paid by solar plants built in 2009-2010.
Czechia registered strong PV capacity growth in 2023, driven by a surge in residential installations. The nation’s PV association says it expects a shift toward larger power plants in the coming year, but notes the need for more energy storage capacity.
