EU energy policy in relation to nuclear energy
Knapová, Jitka ; Němcová, Ingeborg (advisor) ; Horák, Jiří (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to consider on the basis of the chosen states and their approaches to the nuclear power if this source of energy has today in European Union the future. The significant part is engaged in actual situation in Germany and its plan to withdrawal from the nuclear energy. The key question is which impact will have its decision on the other member states of the EU and particularly on the Czech Republic.

The limited liability of the nuclear power plant operators in the european context
Sobotka, Ladislav ; Němcová, Ingeborg (advisor) ; Horák, Jiří (referee)
This thesis focuses on the harmonization of the limited nuclear liability on the european level. The current situation can be characterized with generally low liability limits and different conditions for nuclear energy in the Member States. Such a situations has its consequences in terms of uncertainity about the compenstion of the victims and deformation of the nuclear power market. The first part of the thesis focuses on the development of the european energetic policy and subsequently it strives to answer what elements of the nuclear liability regime are optimal, what are the benefits of the harmonisation on the EU level and what is a realistic way of implementation. The attention is also paid to the obstacles of the whole process.

Energy policy of the EU - Nuclear power in Europe
Kovácsik, Miroslav ; Žamberský, Pavel (advisor) ; Vošta, Milan (referee)
The events of the recent past in the energy department in Europe have shown how big is it's dependency on import of the primary energy resources. In the long run it is obvious that a high dependency on import of resources with the increasing demand of the population will not be able to provide Europe with so much needed easy accessible and reasonably priced energy. The integration process in Europe lasts more than fifty years now but energy policy is even after the ratification of the Lisbon treaty in controll of the national parlaments of member countries. Even though the options and posibilitie of the countries differ in the long run a closer cooperation is mandatory. The thesis is about the united energy policy in Europe and the development it went through since the beginning of the integration process in the fifties of last century. I will describe the main events that formed it as well as the main resources of energy production in the EU. I will explain the term energy security and in the end I will write about nuclear power that is today a vary efficient but after the events of Fukushima also controversial alternative of energy independence.

EU energy politics- current situation and an outlook for the future
Halm, Lukáš ; Bič, Josef (advisor) ; Krč, Jakub (referee)
I am trying to express my own concept of the solution to the European energy dependance, which has been constantly growing for several years. While analyzing the main resources of energy available at the time, I've come to a conclusion that nuclear energy and renewable resources tend to be the most proper sources of energy in order to stop or even decrease the energy dependance rate of the EU. After analyzing the economic use and possible capacities of the proposed resources, it has occured to me that even their further implementation would lead to a decline in above mentioned energy dependance rate of EU. At the same time, it would consequently reduce the prices of the energy in the European Union, not mentioning the ecological profits of such resources.

Nuclear energy and its future
Eretová, Kamila ; Dvořák, Antonín (advisor) ; Hadrabová, Alena (referee)
This work deals with the potential of nuclear energy in general and in our country. Nuclear energy offers as almost a necessary alternative to fill growing demand for electricity in our country and the world. Increased attention is paid to the electricity market in our country, the role of nuclear energy in the Czech energy mix and the possibilities of its use in the future as an alternative to other energy sources (renewable, fossil resources), and savings and imports from abroad. The author summarizes the main benefits, but also the risk that nuclear energy brings. Does not forget the attitude of environmentalists, opponents and the public to the nuclear issue, which improves long-term, giving scope for the use of nuclear energy.

Position of nuclear energy in Europe (focus on France)
Rožníčková, Lucie ; Kašpar, Václav (advisor) ; Vošta, Milan (referee)
The objective of the thesis is to characterize the nuclear energy in the european area with the focus on nuclear energy in France. The sector of nuclear energy is now experiencing a new period, so-called "nuclear renaissance". Many european countries decided to rebuild the present nuclear power sites or to construct new ones. Nuclear energy is the most advantageous solutions for many european countries because it decreases external energy dependence and it helps to diminish the carbon dioxide emissions. In the connection with the Czech Presidency in the European Union, it was made proposal for the "Nuclear Security Community" which has to unify the security level of member states of the EU and to intensify the mutual cooperation in the domain of nuclear energy. France represents world nuclear leader thanks to efficiently operating oragnizations, excellent results in nuclear research, realization of nuclear fuel recycling and strong government support. Nucler energy in France can serve as an example for four recommendations to other european countries: government support, efficiently working research institutions, global cooperation between all subjects participating on the formation of nuclear energy and active involvement in the international cooperation in nuclear energy. In spite of constantly high initial investment in construction of nuclear power sites, the nuclear energy seems to experience a positive future.

Nuclear energy in the Czech Republic
Bosáková, Lenka ; Vostrovská, Zdenka (advisor) ; Antoš, Ondřej (referee)
This thesis deals with the topic of nuclear energy. The Czech Republic is currently a net electricity exporter however this status will probably change in next few years because of growing electricity consumption and decommissioning of obsolete coal-fired power plants. Moreover, contemporary government declared that it won't approve any construction of new reactors stressing the importance of renewable sources of energy (in spite of their limited potential in the Czech Republic). The goal of this thesis is to answer the question whether nuclear energy can compete with other sources of energy and whether is it possible to satisfy growing electricity consumption under the conditions of the Czech Republic by any other source of electricity besides nuclear energy taking into account environmental aspects.
