Actual State and Potential of Renewable Sources Utilization in the EU
Kubín, David ; Radil, Lukáš (referee) ; Macháček, Jan (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis named Actual State and potential of renewable sources utilization in the EU offers a detailed summary of the current and future utilization of renewable resources in each member state of the European Union. The opening chapters briefly introduce the term renewable resources and the legislation relating to this issue. The following chapter is devoted to a detailed background research of actual renewable energy utilization in all twenty seven member states of the European Union. The countries are ranked by their dates of accession to the Union in ascending order, in each chapter alphabetically. All information and data are obtained from reliable sources such as annual energy reports of ministries or institutions which are concerned with energy issues. This chapter contains a great amount of charts and tables taken from annual reports and which are revised for the needs of this thesis. The chapter named Potential of renewable energy utilization in the EU offers an insight into the assumed future utilization of renewable resources up to the year 2020. This chapter draws from so-called National renewable energy action plans (NREAP) in which each member state presents its plan leading to higher renewable sources utilization in the near future. The reader is therefore able to familiarize with plans concerning renewable sources in each member state. The chapter named Complex evaluation familiarizes with some pros and cons concerning renewable sources and their utilization. Further the author presents his point of view on renewable sources and some recommendation leading to a better integration of renewable sources into energetics.

Seawater desalination
Kamenický, Robin ; Hájek, Zdeněk (referee) ; Maar, Tomáš (advisor)
Každodenní nedostatek pitné vody vede ke snahám tento problém řešit. Jedna z možnosti je odsolování ať už destilační, za pomoci membrán a osmózy, či dalších nekonvenčních způsobů jako je zmražení vody. Tato práce se zabývá možnostmi odsolování. Popisuje způsoby destilační, reverzní osmózu, solární odsolování a nezapomíná ani na separaci pitné vody pomoci zmražení. Spolu se získáváním pitné vody ze slané nastává také otázka energetických zdrojů. Využití fosilních paliv, obnovitelných zdrojů energie a jaderné energie, je tedy další nepostradatelné téma popisované v této práci. V neposlední řadě se zde také můžete dočíst o možném dopadu odsolování na životní prostředí, ať už z hlediska globálního v podobě možné produkce skleníkových plynů nebo dopadů lokálních. V závěrečné kapitole je podrobná ekonomická analýza odsolovacího zařízení pomoci počítačového programu DEEP. Popisované zařízení je na bázi multi effect distillation a reverzní osmózy, pro které se získává energie z jaderné elektrárny.

Future energy sources
Hatiar, Peter ; Moskalík, Jiří (referee) ; Škvařil, Jan (advisor)
This work deals with the issue of energy resources. It deals with the energy challenges for the coming decade, it briefly describes the various energy resources and assesses their potential. Given the scale of that issue, the work is focused on the use of energy resources, especially for electricity production.

Alternative energy sources
Stránský, Jaroslav ; Moskalík, Jiří (referee) ; Škvařil, Jan (advisor)
In this work, I tried to summarize the current state of world energy resources that we use to convert into electrical energy. There is solved the question of compensation running short supplies of fossil fuels and reduce discharge of greenhouse gasses. I´m looking for suitable compensation in department of alternative energy sources, among which I included the power of the Sun, water, wind, geothermal energy, using heat pumps, combustion energy, nuclear energy, fuel cells and hydrogen use. About anyone of replacing sources you learn about its history, advantages and disadvantages, the principle of function energy transform devices, and compare the potential that is available in the CR and in the world.

The activities of the Czech ecological organisations: Case study Temelin
Novotná, Marcela ; Vymětal, Petr (advisor) ; Lisa, Aleš (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with activities of the Czech ecological organisations which were active in case of nuclear power plant Temelin after its breaking-in. The thesis is divided into four chapters. The first one focuses on the definition of the ecological organisation (movement). In the second chapter, the attention is paid to the history of foundation and functioning of the nuclear power plant Temelin. The third chapter is about advantages and disadvantages of the nuclear power. The last chapter focuses on the analysis of activities of the Czech ecological organisations which opposed or supported the nuclear power plant Temelin.

Energetics in the EU: economic analysis of energy from nuclear and renewable sources after 2011
Vomáčka, Roman ; Loužek, Marek (advisor) ; Louda, Jiří (referee)
In the context of the fight against global warming, the European Union decided to lead by example and show the rest of the World that is possible to conduct sustainable environmental policy in practice. For this purpose mass support for renewable energy and effort to reduce the importance of nuclear energy were introduced. Germany went with this policy the furthest. Their geographical location and size of the market affects the whole Central European region and thus the Czech Republic. This paper primarily attempts analyze ways to support renewable energy sources and nuclear power in the EU with a closer focus on the Czech Republic and their impact on the energy market. This paper analyzes the impact of RES support and development in near future. The conclusion proposed by the paper is that the current policy of the EU in the energy sector rather causes destabilization of the entire energy network and the associated risks.
