Best practise
Bioenergy village Jühnde
Municipality with CHP (biogas) and a boiler for wood chips - producing electricity and heat; the heat is supplied to the district grid; self sufficient energy supply of whole village on the base of biomass; decentralised energy supply; Using the potential, creating/keeping employment/added value in the region; common information, communication and decision process; EuroSolar Price in December 2005
