entrepreneurs, that are interested in using all energy sources in its environment. The result of
this, should be clear view about bio-energy sources and their use through specific simulations
about financial-investment difficulty.
Planned simulator can contribute not only to the clarification of bio-energy sources field, but
it can also help to choose the concrete solution of the construction project and simulated
construction of the individual equipment aimed at renewable sources use.
Complete information tool will be ended with the section dedicated to the financing of
specific bio-projects. Project of the construction equipment, that will be chosen according
criteria sponsor (municipalities, entrepreneurs), can be financially evaluated and return on
investment will be set by responsible and expert subject. As the projects aimed on
construction of biomass equipment are highly capital-intensive, simulator allows clarify
possibilities of the projects, by bank loan or financing from European funds.

This implies the continuity of cooperation between various sectors to be included in the

not only to inform, but also to improve cooperation between individuals, it is expected
especially mutual cooperation between these sectors:
- Private and public sector - candidates of renewable sources use or submitters criteria,
municipalities, farms, institutions, regional development (SARIO), international
cooperation, research institutions.
- Technology sector - bodies competent to carry out biotechnology projects -
entrepreneurs, research institutes, etc.
- Financial sector - banking institutions, entities responsible for communicating
information about project funding from the European funds. (Pčolinská, 2007)
