CONCLUSIONS FROM THE CONFERENCE“BIOMASS - POTENTIAL FOR GROWTH”

• The regulations have been aligned and they make room for developing projects for biomass generated energy production.
• The involvement of state and international institutions has created the basis to initiate investments in biomass exploitation with private capital. This also creates human potential and better understanding of reasons and methods of biomass use.
• Standardisation and certification of biomass quality is the basis for the sustainable and efficient use of biomass and this process, which is supported by GIZ in the Republic of Serbia, is expected to become applicable in practice in near future.
• Positive good practice examples in the Republic of Serbia, presented at the conference, lead to the conclusion that the market, although small, exists.The expansion of this economic sector could be expected with solid support of financial, scientific and state institutions. The biomass market could soon become one of the major drivers of economy and the creator of new jobs in the Republic of Serbia.
