Je smysluplné podporovat výrobu elektřiny ve fotovoltaických elektárnách v ČR?

As a consequence of recent generous subvention program, supporting electricity production from renewable resources, number and size of installed capacity of the photovoltaic plants in the Czech Republic skyrocketed. Strikingly, using photovoltaic plants to reduce CO2 is the most expansive but paradoxically the most supported way to reduce emissions compared to alternative electricity production in the Czech Republic. Guaranteed producers' purchase price increases electricity prices for households and firms. Production of electricity in photovoltaic plants also encumber power transfer network. Purchase prices of electricity from photovoltaic plants were introduced to increase the share of electricity produced in photovoltaic plants on the overall consumption and to reduce CO2 emissions. Reducing CO2 emissions to stop climate change was the main reason for introducing photovoltaic subvention. Analysing the relationship between amount of CO2, number of photovoltaic plants and GDP on the data of selected countries showed that the production of electricity in a photovoltaic plants contributes nothing to CO2 reduction in short-term.
