The main goal of the project is to improve air quality by increasing the production of energy from renewable sources (biogas). This project is compatible, inter alia, with the following strategic EU, national and local documents, as it promotes the use of renewable energy sources (biogas): - the Clean Energy package of the European Commission - Polish energy policy until 2040 - development strategy for the fuel and energy sector - a project of the Małopolska Program for Air

Thanks to the project, heating system will become an "effective system", in acc. with Dir. 2012/27/EU at least 50% of energy from renewable sources and waste heat will be used to produce heat (100% heat from cogeneration). Main activities: - supplying existing and planned cogener. modules through the use of spherical tanks - addition of 2 cogeneration modules with a capacity of approx. 800kWel - expansion of the low-parameter heat network covering the planned use of cogeneration to heat building
