ABSTRACT: This contribution is focused on a possible
utilization of renewable energy resources in the Podkrušnohoříregion
(Chmomutov, Most, Teplice, ústí nad Labem districts) in the northern part of
the Czech Republic after the end of brown coal mining in 2055. Results of the
research describe current share of renewable energy resources (solar, wind,
water, biogas) in the model area, and a future energy potential in order to
ensure sustainable development of an anthropogenically burdened region. Aim of this contribution is to determine, which renewable
energy resources would be the most suitable for energy production after the end of brown coal mining. It
also describes current and possible use of geothermal power as there are
registered heat flow anomalies in the area.
