Sažetak
One of the most important EU policies nowadays is the policy of enewable sources of energy in other words wind power, solar power (thermal, photovoltaic and concentrated), hydro-electric power, tidal power, geothermal energy and biomass, which are essential alternatives to fossil fuels. Their use reduces our greenhouse gas emissions, diversifies our energy supply and reduces our dependence on unreliable and volatile fossil fuel markets (in particular oil and gas). In my contribution I will focus on the area of biomass1, which also covers the terms biofuels2 or bioenergy3 gained from animal production from the view of legal regulation in EU context. I will summarize the contemporary legislation and moreover I will aim at the new Directive 2009/28/EC of 23 April 2009 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources and amending and subsequently repealing Directives 2001/77/EC4 and 2003/30/EC5. This Directive on renewable energy sets ambitious targets for all Member States, so that the EU will reach a 20% share of energy from renewable sources by 2020 and a 10% share of renewable energy specifically in the transport sector.
