Hydro power station design
Novák, Pavel ; Grepl, Robert (referee) ; Ondrůšek, Čestmír (advisor)
This thesis deals with designing a small hydraulic power plant, where a swirl turbine is conected to a unique synchronous working, which will offer a reliable and easy installation of the hydraulic power plant. As a result a wider potential of energy could be produced from renewable resources. The use of a narrow rottor as a holder of the permanent magnets is the biggest difficulties of this design.

Installation of small wind power station
Puchnar, Jiří ; Vaněk, Jiří (referee) ; Křivík, Petr (advisor)
This work is focused on the power engineering of the Czech Republic, particularly the alternative and its subset, wind power. Introduction acquaints readers with the state of energy in the country. They're the facts of the historical development of energy in Czechoslovakia and its status today. Representation of particular sources which are involved in the so-called. "Big Energy", their description and production. Each of the resources used is briefly described and discussed basic advantages and disadvantages arising from the nature of the source. It is also outlined the possible development of energy and change in the application of these resources in the future. The conclusion is devoted to alternative energy sources. Strives to cover the positive and negative aspects. It also shows the effect of alternative energy sources to power grid stability. The conclusion of this chapter is devoted to draft measures to increase the use of alternative energy sources in the energy mix of the Czech Republic. The second part is devoted to experimental measurements on small wind turbine JPT-100 from Jetpro Technology, Inc. The beginning describes the basic mathematical methods for calculating wind power and wind turbine itself. The text is accompanied by illustrative graphs. Another part deals with the actual wind turbine JPT-100. There are mentioned its characteristics, complete description of measuring workplace and measurement results.

Alternative Energy Sources and Their Integration into the Concept of Smart Grids
Kopička, Marek ; Procházka, Jiří (referee) ; Baxant, Petr (advisor)
This work deals mainly with electrical energy. In the first part is focused on alternative energy sources, and describes structure of consumption and production of electricity over the past few years, during which is focuses on renewable energy sources. In this context, assesses the conditions for alternative energy sources in the Czech Republic from the perspective of the legislative, as well as current status and potential of alternative energy sources and tries to predict the development of these issues. The next section describes the Smart Grids as a means to achieve these goals. There are presented the basic features of this system, its goals and challenges, a description of the integration of Smart Grids with other sources of electricity and the benefits of using Smart Grids both from the perspective of user and from the perspective of system. Other parts are focused on distributed control systems in the energy sector, its development and principle. The last part is devoted to consideration of the role of alternative energy sources and distributed generation in Smart Grids.

Power Supply System for Housis Using Renewable Resources
Gálus, Matej ; Punčochář, Josef (referee) ; Šebesta, Jiří (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is to describe the advantages of simultaneous utilization of photovoltaic and wind electricity in an autonomous system, supplying the household with electricity without connection to the electrical grid. The most used methods of connecting photovoltaic modules and wind generators to chemical batteries are discussed. Several maximum power point tracking methods and their properties are described. A block schematic diagram of an autonomous off-grid system utilizing chemical accumulators is proposed. The system also contains an inverter producing standard mains voltage 230 VAC to supply common household appliances. A Quasi-Square Wave converter topology was chosen for all three power converters. An experimental 180 W output power QSW converter with one controllable switch was designed, simulated with Pspice, manufactured and tested to verify the efficiency of the topology. Excellent agreement was found between predicted and measured efficiency at full output power. Efficiency for reliable operation varies between 89% and 92,2% at full power and depends mainly power inductor and MOSFET used. After successful evaluation of QSW topology, the power converters for the main system were designed. Because of higher power, the converters were designed as four-phase, whereas each phase contains two controllable switches to boost efficiency mainly in low-power area. The most critical and difficult part of the project was to design the mixed-signal control sections for the converters to ensure proper switching of two controllable MOSFETs in each phase. For user interactivity, main control board with graphic LC display, Ethernet module and SD memory card slot was also manufactured.

Utilization of renewable energy for heating
Foit, Vladimír ; Hejčík, Jiří (referee) ; Chovancová, Michaela (advisor)
This bachelor's thesis, titled Alternative Heating Options, is divided into four parts. First, an overview of renewable energy sources available in Czech Republic is presented. Second part contains Czech energy policy and legislation and several grants related to renewable energy sources. Third part lists several projects constructed in Czech Republic including a description of a specific project on a residential house. Last part aims to design a heating system for a building using one of already referenced methods and to compare it with other heating systems. The returns of the design is also discussed.

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.

World oil market
Batryn, Maria ; Hinčica, Vít (advisor) ; Němečková, Iveta (referee)
In my bachelor thesis I deal with the situation on the world oil market. The aim is to get closer to the historical and current data of world oil consumption, its supplies and prices, and to outline the future state of the market and also to study alternative energy sources that could replace the currently widely used fossil fuel. To analyse world oil market I have used statistical reports, which are issued annually by the world important world organizations such as OPEC or IEA. Carried out research work is in progress to assess the current supply and demand for oil and at the same time it is estimated the possible scenario in the future oil trading. Biofuels and hydrogen are highlighted among the renewable sources which surely will play a major role in the coming years in search of other alternatives to oil and in which conceals a lot of potential. The view of this work is the outlook of the other years in terms of oil consumption and price trends and approaches the issue of alternative energy sources. Although they promise a bright future for these resources in the form of a reduction of our dependence on oil, research in this field has still many unresolved issues.
