The aim of this book is to discuss obstacles and success conditions of
a further diffusion of renewable energies in the EU-Accession States.
Besides the ten states which will join the EU in 2004, Bulgaria and
Romania which will probably join the European Union in 2007 as well as
Turkey are also analysed. This publication is the second collection of
systematic case studies describing national renewable energy policies in
Europe. The first edition was published in 2002 under the title Handbook
of Renewable Energies in the European Union – Case Studies of all Member
States. As in its predecessor all chapters in the Handbook of Renewable
Energies in the European Union II – Case Studies of all Accession States
have been carried out using the same structure. Apart from a comparison of
the case studies in the introduction a service chapter at the end of the
book informs the reader about the most important associations, websites,
and journals pertinent to the subject matter.

„I would like to recommend the present Handbook, reviewing for the first
time the use of renewable energies in all the candidate countries and
following-up an earlier Handbook covering current Member States. The
present Handbook will not only help to analyse what more needs to be done
in the various countries to foster renewable energy, but also point to
innovative approaches which merit to be reflected throughout the EU.“
(Günter Verheugen)
