Ekonomická analýza energetického práva
Vystrčil, Filip
This thesis deals in detail with the economic analysis of energy law from the perspective of sanctions for offences defined in more detail by Czech and European legislation. The aim was to identify individual sanctions resulting from the Energy Act and to compare their effectiveness with the development of earnings before taxes of selected companies. The main finding was that the performance of energy companies and penalties for offences do not evolve at the same pace. The thesis concludes by recommending an amendment to the Energy Act to modify the existing categories of offences and to increase the maximum amount of fines set at a 'fixed rate' by at least the average increase in the consumer price index.

Jančuška, Michal ; Damohorský, Milan (advisor) ; Humlíčková, Petra (referee)
Implementation of the Third energy package into the legal order of the Czech Republic Summary This thesis discusses the implementation issue of the Third energy package, also known as the Third liberalization package, into the Czech national law. It consists of three regulations and two directives of the European Union, which determines the energy politics both on the European level and on the level of the member states. The first part of this thesis describes the ancestors of the Third energy package and their accomplishments or failures together with reasons for creating the next generations of liberalizing legislation. The author describes the liberalization in the form of the legal, functional and accounting unbundling separately for electricity and gas industry at the European level, and then the implementation at the level of the Czech legislation. In the next chapter it is further explained, what were the European legislator's incentives for creating the Third energy package, and what new institutes it stipulates. It is herein described that the European Union came with three different unbundling versions of the transmission system operators (TSO) - Ownership unbundling (OU), Independent system operator (ISO) and the Independent transmission operator (ITO). Requirements of all of the three variations...

Public law regulation of use of renewable energy in the Czech Republic
Jendřejas, Jan ; Pítrová, Lenka (referee)
89 Public law regulation of renewable energy sources usage in the Czech Republic Abstract This thesis is devoted to the public regulation of renewable sources usage in the Czech Republic. It is however strongly emphasizing the European component of the regulation and it gives some focus to a comparison of Czech regulation with foreign regulation, specifically German. Its objective is to define concepts that are necessary to analyze legal regulation, analyze the evolution of the public law regulation in the area of renewable energy sources, describe current situation and provide some prospect for future, as well as offer suggestions on improvement of the regulation. The thesis therefore in its first part provides definitions of basic concepts, such as renewable energy sources and particular types thereof, production and source of electrical energy. In a following part the thesis using historical legislation as well as other sources follows the evolution of the regulation in question on the Czech territory and focuses on a successful program Zelená úsporám in a greater detail. Chronologically comes the thesis to a current state of regulation of renewable energy sources usage, mainly from a viewpoint of a public support thereof. Hence it concerns mainly about the law No. 165/2012 Sb. on supported energy...

Energy Law of the Czech republic
Blahoudková, Gabriela ; Handrlica, Jakub (advisor) ; Eichlerová, Kateřina (referee)
Energy law of the Czech Republic Abstract The diploma thesis is devoted to the Energy law of the Czech Republic and its main purpose is to analyse the regulation of enterprise in the energy sectors under public law. The thesis concentrates mostly on the regulation under the Energy act, but it also reflects relevant regulation contained in other statutes, regulations, European Union legislation or international agreements. The thesis also reflects the consequences of the stated regulation for the enterprises performing business activities in the energy sector. For this purpose, the thesis distinguishes between various entities operating on the market with (i) electricity, (ii) gas and (iii) heating. Besides it also defines what preconditions individual subjects must meet to perform the activities in energy sector and what obligations the energy law imposes on them. In this context the thesis concentrates on the instruments of legal regulation used in this field, especially the licence, the certificate of independence and the state authorization for the construction of the power stations or some gas facilities. Moreover, the thesis compares stated legal tools with legal tools used abroad; in particular with legal tools used in the Slovak Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany that were chosen because of...

Protection of Investments in Gas Sector: The Perspectives of Legal Relations between the European Union and the Russian Federation
Lyapina, Elmira ; Šturma, Pavel (advisor) ; Balaš, Vladimír (referee) ; Stehlík, Václav (referee)
The absence of a relevant legal basis between huge commercial partners such as the EU as a single entity and the Russian Federation promoted the emergence of a legal vacuum. The long term cooperation between Russia and the EU has only one bilateral agreement - the Agreement on Partnership and Cooperation signed in 1994, which is however obsolete, and does not meet the contemporary needs. The adequate legal basis for Russia-EU cooperation in the gas sector is still missing. The protection of investments in the gas sector is being realized by bilateral agreements between Russia and EU member states, soft law and general international agreements, without any specifications for those two partners. The only international instrument covering the energy relations of these two partners - Energy Charter Treaty cannot be considered as a reliable mechanism, as Russia withdrew from it more than 8 years ago. The reasons of the withdrawal and the Yukos case as an illustrative example are discussed in this paper. In order to avoid uncertainty in such strategic area as gas investment relations and unpredictable decisions between the states represented by the commercial entities, there is a need to design a substantive legal basis, and a need to consider on the adequate dispute resolution body. In this thesis, key...

Legal regulation of the renewable energy resources
Krupičková, Andrea ; Žákovská, Karolina (advisor) ; Damohorský, Milan (referee)
With the adoption of the Act on Promotion of Use of Renewable Energy Resources in 2005, the Czech Republic took a significant step forward to examine the economic field of energy in general in light of environmental and climate protection. With this act, the Czech Republic followed the example of other European Union member states in asserting the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and seeking alternative energy resources in the spirit of the Kyoto Protocol obligations. The goal of this Master's thesis is to present and logically analyze the relevant legal legislation concerning renewable resources passed in the Czech law. The emphasis of this analysis of the Act No. 180/2005 Sb. on the Promotion of the Use of Renewable Energy Resources in the context of energy law, whereby the attention is placed on promotion of energy production, those in the Czech Republic represent two alternative schemes: "feed-in tariff" and "green bonus certificates." With the broad definition of renewable energy resources in the introduction, this thesis comprises a basic overview of this comprehensive legal problem. This thesis consists of five separate chapters, which are closely related.
