==Comparison of Czech and Austrian approaches to production of electricity from renewable resources== | |||
In the near future people will face challenge of emerging energy crisis and will have to solve this problem. We will deplete the resources of fossil fuels but our energy consumption will be increasing. There are two options how to struggle with this situation after that. We can use either nuclear energy or energy from renewable resources. In both ways our fossil fuels consumption will decrease and so the | In the near future people will face challenge of emerging energy crisis and will have to solve this problem.

In both Austria and the Czech Republic energy consumption is increasing. However, energy mix of the Czech Republic and Austria is very different. Austria is on a good path to be sustainable whereas the situation in the Czech Republic is rather controversial. The electricity production is highly influenced by geographical conditions that prevail in each country. The other factors that influence energy mix are the decisions of policy makers and the mentality of citizens. In Austria, there are more generous subsidies for renewable resources, better marketing and public awareness. These are the factors that can be changed also in the Czech Republic when civil society and media make bigger efforts. | In both Austria and the Czech Republic energy consumption is increasing.
