Environmental impact assessment in branch of wind energy in the Czech Republic

Original language description

The introductory part of paper describes so-called anti-fossil act, which is prepared in the Czech Republic. It is clear that meeting the aims of the act may significantly contribute to the development of wind energy in the Czech Republic as in 2040 the share of renewable energy sources on the so-called energy mix shall reach 25% (nowadays ca. 13%). The article includes a section dealing with the overall development trend in the newly installed facilities intended for the generation of electric power, which in 2015 clearly pointed at a wider exploitation of wind power in Europe. In 2015 the wind power plant technology recorded an increase of 6.3% in the installed capacity as opposed to 2014. As a sum, we speak of an output of 12,800 MWe in the newly installed wind power plants. Next part of paper deals with environmental impacts of wind power plants on the environment. During assessing the environmental impacts of wind energetics projects the following factors (noise, impacts on the face of the landscape, impacts on the migration routes and bird nesting, impacts on the fauna, flora and ecosystems, shadow flicker, impacts on the soil, surface water and ground water, other impacts) are taken mainly into consideration. The conclusion of paper discusses the current trends in the wind power-engineering in Europe and the situation in environmental impact assessment of wind farms in the Czech Republic
