Government approves renewable energy source plan

The Czech government approved the proposal for a national action plan for renewable energy sources on Thursday. The plan outlines the way the Czech Republic will reach renewable energy targets set by the EU. According to the plan, renewable energy sources will make up 14% of the total energy usage of the Czech Republic. According to the Industry and Trade Minister Martin Kuba, financing for most renewable energy sources will be cut as of 2014, since the current system of government support has caused problems for Czech industry and consumers.
