Špeciánová, Sára ; Nigrin, Tomáš (advisor) ; Mlsna, Petr (referee)
On 11th March 2011 was Japan hit by tsunami, which caused among others the accident in nuclear energy station in Fukushima. This disaster has influenced the German energy policy a lot and this despite the fact that Japan is situated on the other side of the world. The real risks of nuclear power in Germany didn't change as well. This paper follows the changes of energy policy that were caused by the accident. Because of the long-term character of energy decisions, is it important to mention the period of red-green alliance, which was very essential. The paper concentrates on the years 2010 and 2011, when the most changes happened. The changes in nuclear sector and renewable sources sector are described more in detail. The aim of this paper is the qualitative description of these changes and the evaluation of their consequences and the overall impact on the German power industry. The nuclear disaster in Fukushima accelerated the development within the energy transition, which started in 2000. The changes were very fast and the biggest impact was caused in nuclear sector, which was the acceleration of nuclear phase out. In renewable sources sector was the effect minimal, the targets remained unchanged. The energy transition goes very well, despite some negative effects. In future would it be...
