As of 2025, solar power in the Czech Republic represented 14.7% of the total energy share, with an installed capacity of 5.5 GW and a generation of 4.4 TWh at the end of the year. The country experienced a 12-year absence from new photovoltaic installations between 2011 and 2023 due to anti-PV campaigns that led to the feed-in tariff being reduced by 25%. While it had almost two gigawatts (GW) of capacity at the end of 2010, of which almost 1,500 MW installed in the same year, it added less than 10 MW in 2011 and 109 MW in 2012. In 2014, no new installations were reported.

In 2003 a Czech-Austrian information and training center for solar power was founded in the village of VÃÂà ¾ovatá Plánàin South Bohemia. That same year major Josef Mach claimed that the electricity from the TemelÃÂn nuclear power plant in the Czech Republic would be abandoned. He is known as one of the biggest TemelÃÂn opponents in the Czech Republic.
