Describe briefly the transfer of environmentally sound technology and know-how including where appropriate
the type of technology, terms, education, capacity building etc.
A Biomass Energy Information & Support Centre will be grounded to provide for information, information
exchange, training and project development in Slovakia. The project stimulates the use of biomass and
creates a stronger position for the Dutch biomass energy industry in Slovakia. Presentations will be given
at conferences, workshops and seminars etc. Articles will be published in journals and scientific
literature.
Local employees will be trained in the operation of the biomass boiler. Local biomass technology experts
will be trained to transfer knowledge to the industry, research institutes and the government.
A market study will be performed, followed by an investment scheme to a wider implementation of biomass
boilers.
