Összefoglaló


Exploiting the opportunity for domestic green power production and utilisation could contribute to a reduction in Hungary’s dependence on energy imports, while helping farmers and inhabitants living in disadvantageous social and production circumstances to access a new source of income generation.
Effective production and utilisation of biomass requires the organisation and practical application of a knowledge, the transmission of which would best be served by the establishment and operation of a Green Power Consultancy Service (ZETA), operating within the framework of an adequate organisational system. ZETA would be a producer-oriented consultancy service, dedicated to serving the increased effectiveness of biomass producers and service-providers – in a manner that takes into account the businesses’ differing situations.
In the early years, ZETA would be financed from Hungarian state resources, EU funds and user subscriptions. In tandem with an expansion in the range of services offered by ZETA, a greater share of its financing could be borne by the biomass producers and service-providers.
