Study: Czechia can raise renewable energy share to 33 percent by 2030

Czechia can double the share of renewable energy in its consumption by 2030, raising it to 33 percent. Solar and wind power, as well as improved energy efficiency, can make a major contribution. This is according to a study produced in collaboration between expert teams from Fakta o klimatu (Facts about Climate) and Frank Bold. The study's authors informed the Czech News Agency (ČTK) of its findings today.

The team of analysts and experts at Fakta o klimatu seeks to promote factual discussion of climate change based on verified data, while the Frank Bold expert group provides legal expertise as well as advice on energy and green finance. „Our study shows that by 2030 we can meet a full third of our consumption from renewable sources. Savings and biomass will help us do this, but above all, so will the development of solar and wind power. Photovoltaics have seen a major boom over the past year. But, as our data show, wind power development needs a similar boost,“ said Jan Krčál of Fakta o klimatu.
