Review Background
• IEA conducts regular reviews – every 4-5 years
• Last Czech review was in 2005
• Based on the IEA’s Shared Goals and three pillars:
Energy security
Economic growth
Environmental sustainability
• Peer review by experts from other IEA member countries
(France, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Turkey, UK, ) along with EC,
NEA and IEA
• Report based on Review Team visit in November 2009 and
research in December 2009 - June 2010

A mix of nuclear, renewables and fossil-fuels with CCS will be
needed to decarbonise the electricity sector.

Policy Challenges
• Draft State Energy Concept
 preferential use of domestic resources
 coal, uranium, renewables
 focus on supply side
 third largest electricity exporter in the EU
 need for further integration with climate
change objectives
 scenarios, greater consultation, analysis of
costs and benefits

Energy efficiency is crucial in efforts to reduce energy consumption and address
climate change, while also providing benefits for energy security.

Role on the Regional Electricity Market…
Cooperation between governments and TSOs is key.

… and Regional Gas Market
Effective policy framework is needed
to attract investments in cross-border infrastructure.
© OECD/IEA 2010
Key Recommendations (I)
The Government of the Czech Republic should:
Build on the draft State Energy Concept, Climate
Protection Policy and report of the Independent
Energy Expert Commission to develop coherent
energy and climate strategies including a vision to
2050 consistent with the latest EU policies in these
areas, and consider different scenarios to assess in
particular the economic and environmental
sustainability of the proposals
© OECD/IEA 2010
Key Recommendations (II)
The Government of the Czech Republic should :
Develop an integrated strategy to improve energy
efficiency, addressing both primary and final energy
use, particularly in the buildings and transport sectors,
and improving the co-ordination and cost-effectiveness
of different energy efficiency schemes; and identify
specific policy measures to achieve particular energysaving targets, the responsible institutions, resource
allocations and timelines for implementation.
© OECD/IEA 2010
Key Recommendations (III)
The Government of the Czech Republic should:
Assess the economic and social costs and benefits of
enhancing energy security through the predominant
use of domestic energy resources and, if necessary,
consider low-carbon energy sources, such as gas, in
devising a long-term strategy to reduce emissions
© OECD/IEA 2010
Key Recommendations (IV)
The Government of the Czech Republic should :
•Create an effective policy framework to attract
investments in cross-border infrastructure in both
electricity and gas sectors.
•Support co-operation among governments and
transmission system operators at the regional level,
in order to ensure that growth in electricity supply is
compatible with the regional supply and demand
balance and strengthen co-operation with
neighbouring countries to develop a functioning
regional electricity market.
