Public Utilities in the EU: Evaluation of Electricity Industry Regulation in the Czech Republic
Hába, Stanislav ; Němcová, Ingeborg (advisor) ; Horák, Jiří (referee)
The thesis scrutinizes public utilities (network industries) with focus on electricity market regulation. In the first part, a public utility is defined, including its economic characteristics and need for regulation. Within their regulation various models are introduced - in terms of level, voluntary/mandatory, ex ante/ ex post and branch of government. Further, the basic prerequisites for successful regulation are derived from the theory (independence, information capacity and trustworthiness). The second part is concerned only with electrical power industry with its characteristics, business model and regulation (both in the Czech Republic and in the EU). In the third part, an evaluation scorecard is created, which allows us to examine the quality of electricity regulators. The criteria in the scorecard are based on prerequisites (enforcement power, scale of resources, independence, dispute settlement, appeal procedure, transparency and consistency) and results (competition support, renewable energy resources and consumer protection). The model is applied to Energy Regulatory Office (Energeticky regulacni urad) in the Czech Republic.

Analysis of energy-saving campaigns in the Czech Republic
Rudolfová, Jana ; Pešek, Ondřej (advisor) ; Zamazalová, Marcela (referee)
This bachelor thesis analyzes energy-saving campaigns, which have taken place so far or are taking place at the moment in the Czech Republic. The thesis is focused only on the campaigns of the four largest energy companies in the Czech Republic, namely ČEZ, RWE, E.ON and PRE. The aim of this thesis is to describe particular ways and tools of marketing communication, which energy companies use for their energy-saving campaigns and through a questionnaire survey to find out what attitude Czech people have towards the issue of energy savings, whether there is an awareness of the existence of energy-saving campaigns in Czech society and whether Czech people are interested in information regarding this issue and also interested in this type of campaigns. The thesis is divided into two parts -- theoretical and practical. The theoretical part is focused on the explanation of marketing terms and companies' social responsibility terms, related to the topic of this thesis, which are very helpful for final understanding of the practical part.

Production and sources of electrical energy
NERUDA, Jan
This thesis deals with possibilities of electric power generation by using different energetic sources. I focus in detail on heat power plants, nuclear power plants, hydraulic power plants, wind power plants and solar energy power plants, where I describe the principle of electric power generation, possibilities of their utilization and their advantages and disadvantages. Then I compare these plants from different aspects. I also made measurements with the barrier-level photocell, by which I wanted to find out the dependence of produced voltage on the barrier-level photocell displacement to the light source.
