The subject of the present Master Thesis is the comparative analysis of the mechanisms for the promotion of renewable energy sources (RES) for residents of the Republic of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Spain. The relevance of this topic is based on the importance of the national energy sector, which must be both competitive and environmentally friendly. For this reason, it is necessary to develop renewable energy. In the Thesis, the following working hypothesis has been raised: how residents of the Republic of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Spain are encouraged to use renewable energy sources? To answer this question, the comparative analysis of the mechanisms for the promotion of renewable energy sources for residents of the Republic of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Spain has been carried out. The following objectives have been accomplished during the analysis: theoretical assumptions of public policy formation and implementation have been analysed; the development and implementation of renewable energy policy in the countries under research have been studied; the mechanism for promoting the use of renewable energy sources in the European Union has been examined; the characteristic features of the mechanisms for promotion of renewable energy sources for residents of the Republic of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Spain have been studied. These objectives have been accomplished by applying the method of analysis of legal documents, comparative and logographic methods. The Thesis analyses the participants of public policy, its formation and implementation in the Republic of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Spain. It has been established that the European Union has a significant influence on renewable energy in the countries under research. Following the Directive 2009/28/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources the countries under research have undertaken to increase the share of these resources in gross final energy consumption (the Republic of Lithuania up to 23%, the Kingdom of Spain up to 20%). To achieve these goals, both countries encourage their residence to use renewable energy. In the Republic of Lithuania and the Spanish autonomous community of Castile and León, various promotional projects are carried out, which are funded by the European Union. The analysis of the mechanisms for the promotion of renewable energy sources of the Republic of Lithuania and the Spanish autonomous community of Castile and León has shown that both countries apply preferential tariffs, capital subsidies or reimbursement, tax credits under certain terms. Besides, the Spanish autonomous community of Castile and León is involved in public institution projects financed by the region. The Republic of Lithuania should also engage in more active promotion and education of its citizens about the possibilities of using renewable energy sources.
