EUROPEAN AND NATIONAL FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES
In order to access European and national funds for the acquisition of briquetting and/or pelletizing lines, you should consider the following aspects:
-
The type of raw material to be used must be established, based on which the production line will be configured, as line configurations differ depending on the raw material.
These raw material types include:
- wood waste, sawdust, pallets, energy willow, etc.
- plant residues resulting from harvesting: straw, rapeseed and corn stalks, soybeans, beans, etc.
- fodder – alfalfa, hay, cereals, etc.
-
Please note that for fuel pellets it is recommended to use only clean sawdust, without tree bark. Pellets made from plant residues should only be used in boilers with mobile or self-cleaning burners. Straw pellets can also be used as animal bedding.
The fields of activity that must be authorized with the Trade Register (ONRC) for briquetting, pelletizing, and granulation activities depend on the raw material and the final product obtained:
