Does solar energy have a future in Central Europe?
Tůma, Ladislav ; Janda, Karel (advisor) ; Benčík, Daniel (referee)
The thesis evaluates the prospects of use of the solar energy in the Czech Republic. The thesis contains the estimation of merit-order effect caused by renewable sources. Its value is 5.74 EUR/MWh in 2014 out of which 2.37 EUR/MWh is attributable to the solar energy. Three hypothetical scenarios about the deployment of new solar power plants are construed. Results indicate that proliferation of such plants would increase the merit-order effect and make solar energy less competitive even if possible decrease in costs of generation is taken into account. Thus the thesis' conclusions do not support solar energy as the reasonable choice in the Czech Republic. In the last part, the effect of photovoltaic output on the system imbalance is examined. Solar production has the influence on the magnitude of the system imbalance but the decisive evidence about the impact on the volatility is not found. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Accumulation of Foreign Exchange Reserves: Asian Case
Tůma, Ladislav ; Vacek, Pavel (advisor) ; Vokatá, Petra (referee)
Bachelor's thesis deals with development of accumulation of foreign exchange reserves in selected Asian countries. In the first chapter various reasons for holding reserves are described. Apart from standard operational purposes, signs of neo-mercantilist and self-insurance motives can be identified in the case of Asian countries. Subsequently, reserve holdings are compared with measures of adequacy. During the 1990's all countries in the sample exceeded criteria suggested but during the first decade of the twenty-first century the growth of foreign exchange reserves slowed down in relative terms. In the econometric part a fixed effect model was designed. Policy analysis proved the presence of structural break after the Asian crisis in 1997. The model was used for prediction of reserves after financial crisis in 2008. Before 2008 accumulation in of reserves in examined states had common trend, however after 2008 trends in sample countries diverged.
