Best practise
Trzcianne individual buildings
Modernisation of 41 coal fired, into biomass fired heating boilers in residential buildings in the Trzcianne commune. The overall cost of the project was 145.586 PLN, which include: subsidy of 90.000 PLN from NFOSiGW, and 55.586 PLN from the award (award in the contest Our Commune in Europe, 250.000 PLN). Promotion of biomass use in the Trzcianne commune.
