IB Extended essay about solar energy - Business and Management

Hello EF,

I'm in a very bad situation right now and need your help. I'm wiriting a business and management extended essay on a research question: "To what extent has the Czech government's support of renewable resources, specifically solar energy, influenced its use by both domestic and commercial entities?"

I want to answer the question by introducing the support of czech government - the very attractive feed-in tariff, continue by showing real examples (Photovoltaic installation on a house) in terms of the power plant's cash flow with and without the support of czech government - which will show the actual impact on the actractiveness of the product and then link it to the data of sales before/after the introduction of the feed-in tariff (the government's support). In conclusion say that as the support of czech government has lead to increase in the atractiveness of a photovoltaic installation in terms of money (profits...), the use of these installations has increased also.

Do you have any ideas, what is wrong, what is right...?

Thank you!!!

Jiri

It sounds like you have very good ideas, but you should go ahead and write the esssay as best as you can, and then more people can help because it's so vague.

Is this tariff the biggest example of the government's support? If so, it sure is a good focus. But what other ways has the government supported solar energy? Also, what about the difference in the way "domestic and commercial" entities were affected? Maybe this is supposed to say "commercial and public" entities?

It seems like you are focusing only on one issue, but maybe there are several things the government did to support solar energy other than this tariff.

You'll get something good if you google this: solar energy Czech melange
