Call No.: ModF – RES+ č. 1/2022 (herenafter referred to as “Call”)
Project title: ČD Cargo – FVE Břeclav, České Budějovice (hereinafter referred to as “Project“)
This project is co-co funded by the Modernization fund based on decision of the Minister of the Environment.
Basic information about the Operational Program
ČD Cargo submitted an application for financial support for the implementation of the project within the framework of the 2nd New Renewable Sources in Energy (RES+) program financed from the Modernization Fund within the ModF – RES+ call No. 1/2022, whose managing body is the Ministry of the Environment of the Czech Republic, regarding the installation of photovoltaic power plants (PPP) on buildings owned by ČD Cargo, a.s., in České Budějovice and Břeclav.
The objective of the Programme, as well as of the Call, was to support the implementation of projects leading to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, modernization of energy systems and increase in the share of renewable energy sources in final energy consumption. Savings in final energy consumption were to be achieved trough to supported measures. The planned allocation of the Call was CZK 15 billion. The determination of the total maximum amount of support for the ČD Cargo project wasbased on the function expressing the relationship betweenof the amount of eligible costs on the installed capacity.
Project description
The subject of this project was the implementation of energy-saving measures through the installation of a photovoltaic power plant on land owned by the applicant ČD Cargo, a.s. In order to meet the conditions of the Call, this was a combined PV project, which includes 2 sub-projects with 2 transfer points to the distribution system. The installed capacity of the combined project was determined by the sum of the installed capacities of the individual PV sub-projects. This combined project consisted of sub-projects/facilities located on the cadastral territories in Breclav (the PV plant was installed on one roof of a building in the OKV premises ) and in České Budějovice (were the photovoltaic power was installed on the roofs of four buildings in the SOKV České Budějovice premises).
The project achieved lower electricity consumption and costs through the installation of a photovoltaic power plant with a total capacity of 203.57 kWp.
The project resulted in a significant reduction of primary non-renewable energy consumption of 406.87 MWh per year. It was therefore evident that the project outputs had positive impact on the enviromental at the local, regional, and national levels within the Czech Republic as an EU Membere State. The implemented measures also generated lower level of emissions.
