Biomass Romania Studies and Master Plan

The Romanian Ministry of Economy, Trade and Business Environment (METBE) is responsible for developing and reinforcing national policy on renewable energy and bioenergy.
The Ministry has requested assistance from the Netherlands to draw up a Biomass Master Plan for Romania. The Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs asked the Dutch energy agency NL Agency (previously known as SenterNovem) to provide the required assistance.

The Romanian beneficiaries are the General Directorate for Energy, Oil and Gas and the Directorate for Quality Infrastructure and Environment, both parts of METBE.

The Centre for Promotion of Clean and Efficient Energy in Romania (ENERO), which works as a subcontractor for NL Agency, has carried out in 2009, 3 studies on biomass development in Romania:

1.Study on Scenarios Biomass Romania
2.Study on Market and tehnologies Biomass Romania
3.Study on Actors Biomass Romania

The Conclusions and Recomandations, also drafted in 2009, synthesised the results of these studies.

In the end, in July 2010, based on the results of the previous works, NL Agency and ENERO elaborate also the Biomass Master Plan for Romania.
