Although many factors affect the investment of individual households in renewable energy sources, we highlight one of them: the local spatial development plan. It is one of the planning tools for implementing development policies at the local level. Since it is on the basis of local spatial plans that investments are carried out on the ground, their role in the implementation of renewable energy sources is one of the most important. This article presents the results of a study of local spatial plans in terms of facilitating, on the one hand, and limiting, on the other hand, the implementation of various renewable energy investments. To a large extent, the focus was on examples of planning acts adopted in Polish communes, but they were compared with examples from other European countries. The authors focused on qualitative assessment, taking into account the regulations applicable to all investors, containing generally binding standards, which specify the development’s land use and detailed building principles. The conclusions include recommendations for the provision of local development plans.

The Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state legislature addresses the tension between the expansion of renewable energies on the one hand and acceptance problems on the other with a participation law on mandatory economic participation. This raises the question of compatibility with applicable law, in particular whether the state legislature has the power to legislate. Furthermore, the author shows the framework for a regulation and takes a position on possible encroachments on fundamental rights by such a regulation. The topicality of the study is demonstrated by the constitutional complaint pending against the law, as well as by the dynamic legislation - for example, Section 36g (5) of the Renewable Energy Sources Act now stipulates an opening clause for the federal states.

Intisari  Pembangkit listrik tenaga angin merupakan salah satu sumber energi terbarukan yang sifatnya ramah lingkungan. Pada tanggal 10 Januari 2013 salah satu kincir angin pembangkit listrik di Baron Technopark jatuh sementara  satu kincir angin yang lainnya baling balingnya patah. Kejadian tersebut terkait dengan adanya siklon tropis Narelle di Samudera Hindia sebelah selatan Nusa Tenggara. Pada saat kejadian, kecepatan angin di kawasan Baron Technopark mencapai 35 knot pada level ketinggian 850 mb. Intensitas hujan maksimum terjadi pada jam 01 WIB tanggal 10 Januari 2013 dengan intensitas 6 mm/3 jam. Kemungkinan besar pada saat kincir angin jatuh terjadi kecepatan angin sesaat (gust) yang sangat kuat. Diperkirakan kecepatannya mencapai lebih dari 75 knot.Abstract  Wind power is one of the renewable energy sources that are environmentally friendly. On January 10, 2013 one of windmill power plants in the Baron Technopark fall whiles the other windmill blades broken. The incident related to the presence of tropical cyclone Narelle in the Indian Ocean south of Nusa Tenggara. At the time of the incident, the wind speed in the Baron Technopark reached 35 knots at an altitude of 850 mb level. The maximum rainfall intensity occurred at 01 pm on January 10, 2013 with the intensity of 6 mm / 3 hours. Most likely at the time of the windmill wind speed falls occur shortly (gust) is very strong. It is estimated that the speed reached more than 75 knots.

Abstract After its establishment, the roof cadastre - solar cadastre I wish to introduce in this article will form a database, with the help of which we will be able to analyse solar radiation factors on the local level (street, house), and a map display will also be available. Through the implementation of the appropriate methods, we can establish roof/solar cadastres on the settlement/district/regional level and these can help to increase the rate of utilization of renewable energy sources.

The main focus of the paper is the investigation of the social potential of local renewable energy utilization in a rural peripheral region in Hungary. Public acceptance of biomass-based renewable energy sources can be crucial for rural communities in realization of their sustainable development strategy. The research area was Koppany Valley Natur Park 2000, a microregion of 10 settlements located in the South Transdanubian region. This microregion is characterized by poor and depressive socioeconomic and demographical conditions, despite its significant natural resources. The microregion’s complex development strategy includes the utilization of local resources of renewable energy. Local population survey (n = 310) was conducted (in May 2018) on local biomass potential, knowledge, and attitudes of the local stakeholders in the microregion. Multinomial logistic regression model estimates the acceptance of population, explanatory variables are categorical demographical (personal) factors and specific factors (based on answers of respondents). Trust in local authorities, knowledge on biomass in general and on specific technologies, as well as the education level of rural inhabitants are significant factors in supporting biomass plant establishment. Further, the group and characteristics of acceptance groups that the local development strategy may consider were defined.

The Given

The paper aims to determine the role and formula of investments in renewable energy sources in Poland’s concepts of local spatial policies. It analyses 12,777 planning documents of local spatial policy (these are resolutions adopted by municipalities—in Poland there are two types of these instruments: studies of spatial development conditions and directions and local spatial development plans) in Poland enacted in 2005–2020. On this basis, local concepts were classified and related to the geographical and functional characteristics of municipalities. Poland is an interesting case study in this respect, providing a good reference point for broader international considerations. It was found that only 58.4% of Polish municipalities include renewable energy sources in their spatial policy concept. These are definitely more often urbanised municipalities. The degree of approach to renewable energy sources is also determined by the location of the municipality in the given province. The authors diagnose serious weaknesses in the Polish spatial planning system, consisting in the lack of skilful implementation of renewable energy sources into it. This is one of the reasons for the weaker development of renewable energy sources in the country. The authors consider as an innovative element of the research the analysis of the content of all spatial policy instruments in a given country, from the perspective of renewable energy sources, including proposing a way to verify these instruments.

Manabí is a province with great potential, either in the agri-food sector or in the renewable generation of energy. However, the limitations inherited from traditional development models prevent achieving the sustainable development of this territory. This paper proposes a development model at the local level, aimed at achieving equity and, through the use of renewable energy sources and other potentials present in specific territories, to improve the quality of life and reduce the risks of societies present there. Through geographic information systems, it was possible to generate and display on maps information related to the energy demand at the provincial and cantonal levels, as well as the province's energy behavior considering the population density.

The One

Contemporary agriculture has become very energy-intensive and mainly uses electricity, which is needed for technological processes on livestock farms. Livestock faeces are burdensome for the environment due to the release of methane into the atmosphere. This article presents the concept of a self-sufficient livestock farm as an off-grid energy circuit that is a part of the agricultural process. The key idea is to obtain an energy flow using the concept of a smart valve to achieve a self-sufficient energy process based on a biogas plant, renewable energy sources, and energy storage. During the production process, a livestock farm produces large amounts of waste in the form of grey and black manure. On the one hand, these products are highly harmful to the environment, but on the other, they are valuable input products for another process, i.e., methane production. The methane becomes the fuel for cogeneration generators that produce heat and electricity. Heat and electricity are partly returned to the main farming process and partly used by residents of the area. In this way, a livestock farm and the inhabitants of a village or town can become energy self-sufficient and independent of national grids. The idea described in this paper shows the process of energy production combining a biogas plant, renewable energy sources, and an energy storage unit that enable farmland to become fully self-sufficient through the energy flow between all constituents of the energy cycle being maintained by a smart valve.
