Study tour through Poland

Polish study tour provided the opportunity to get to know by the stakeholders local/national conditions and regulations, learn problems, which occurred during the operation of the units and exchange experiences from their management. This knowledge may foster the sustainable exploitation of biomass within the EU by eg. creating more effective political measures. Together with project partners the selected group of students from AGH-UST was participating within the study tour. As one of the result of their contribution to the Project is the dissemination activity among their study and/or work places. Among them was one student, who invited us to his agricultural household, heated by small scale biomass boiler. This point previously was not scheduled but it was found by all participants very interesting. This example of sustainable use of biomass (in detail described below) has been the main outcome of the 4Biomass Project considering Polish conditions. During the study tour from large to small scale units were visited:

1. Lagisza Power Station; City of Bedzin, Slaskie Voivodeship
2. Municipal Heating Station in Luban; City of Luban, Dolnoslaskie Voivodeship
3. Willow plantation in Zatonie; Zatonie Village, Lubuskie Voivodship
4. Small scale biomass heating system; Wichow Village, Lubuskie Voivodship
5. Municipal Heating Station in Zabor; City of Zabor, Lubuskie Voivodeship
