Electricity sector in the Czech Republic

The updated energy strategy of 2019 envisions a gradual phase out of coal power share in total electricity generation from 2015''s 46.2% down to 15.5% by 2040. The strategy sees nuclear energy as a non-carbon source of energy to be used during a slow transition to renewables in order to minimize the use of carbon-emitting fossil fuels that cause
