Czechia

The average year-on-year growth of RES share in heating and cooling is proposed at 1 %.&nbsp;

To reduce the total greenhouse gas emissions by 30 % by 2030 compared to 2005.

Reduce national emissions by 2020 by at least 32 Mt CO2-eq in comparison with 2005  by 2020

Reduce national emissions by 2030 by at least 44 Mt CO2-eq in by 2030 against a 2005 baseline

Pursue the indicative level of 39 Mt CO2-eq of emissions in 2050

Pursue the indicative level of 70 Mt CO2-eq of emissions in 2040 against 2005 levels

47.94 PJ final energy savings (6.85 PJ new savings per year) by 2020 against a 2013 baseline

35% cut in biodegradable landfill waste by 2020 against a 1995 baseline

4.1% of total blended petrol from biofuels, 6.0% of total diesel by 2013

20% transport energy from renewables by 2020

2% reduction of GHG emissions per unit of energy in fuel by 2014, then 3.5% by 2017, then 6% by 2020 compared with a business as usual scenario

The plan is consistently based on the principle of the waste management hierarchy, which provides a framework for waste policy with an emphasis on waste prevention and maximum recycling and utilization of waste. It formulates a long-term perspective for sustainable waste management in the Czech Republic with a horizon up to 2035 in the context of binding targets defined in European and national legislation.The plan consists of an analytical, binding, guideline part and the structure and content of the plan are based on the requirements of the Waste Act, in connection with the regulations of the European Union and also the methodological recommendations of the European Commission.
The plan includes 4 strategic goals:
Strategic goals of waste management in the Czech Republic for the period 2025-2035:
<ul>
<li>Waste prevention and reduction of specific waste production.</li>
<li>Minimizing the adverse effects of waste generation and management on human health and the environment.</li>
<li>Sustainable development of society and transition to a circular economy.</li>
<li>Maximum use of waste as a substitute for primary resources.</li>
</ul>

The document is designed as an open living framework document and a fundamental basis for strategic management processes within the Ministry of Agriculture. It reiterates the long-term vision of the Ministry, which entails a competitive and sustainable Czech agriculture, forestry and water management. Its ambition is to create a long-term sustainable, competitive, and entrepreneurially diverse agricultural complex that will be able to respond to global challenges such as climate change, geopolitical instability, demographic changes, and pressure on environmental standards. The document is also a tool for implementing the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and other national and European policies in the period up to 2030 and beyond.
The strategy defines the basic long-term priority, which will be achieved through:
• Sustainable food security and adequate self-sufficiency;
• Sustainable management of natural resources, protection and promotion of biodiversity, mitigation and adaptation to climate change;
• Balanced territorial development of the economy and communities, including job creation;
• Reduction of emissions into the environment;
• Processing of production.

Czechia National Inventory Report (NIR). 2025

The plan responds both to requests of the Czech industry and to EU legislation, particularly Regulation (EU) 2024/1735 – the Net-Zero Industry Act, which aims at ensuring an annual geological storage of at least 50 Mt CO2 by 2030 across the EU. It is reflected that existing strategic documents on the national level lack the required level of detail and concrete measures as regards CCUS development.
The main objective of the action plan for the development of CCUS is to describe these technologies, their potential and limitations in the Czech Republic, including the introduction of methods of support and enabling development in all parts of the value chain (capture, transport, use/storage). The Action Plan can thus become the basis for possible subsequent management decisions in the area of decarbonization.
