This country level report is part of report series that has the objective to perform an initial ‘stock-take’ of the climate policy instrument mix at EU and Member State level. In line with the other reports of the series, this report groups the existing policies in the Czech Republic into four main categories, or policy landscapes: carbon pricing, energy efficiency, renewable energy and non-CO₂ gases.

In the different chapters of the report the respective instruments of each policy landscape are described in detail and their interactions within each of the policy landscapes are identified. In a next step, the policy landscapes are evaluated using a specific definition of what constitutes optimal climate policy, which was developed in a previous CECILIA2050 report (What constitutes an optimal climate policy mix? Defining the concept of optimality, including political and legal framework conditions). In addition, the report also evaluates how the four different policy landscapes interact with each other.
