Summary/Abstract: Use of fossil fuels produces emissions of polluting materials in the air that besides health problems make unwanted changes in global ecosystems and contribute to global climate change on Earth. Developed countries with high environmental awareness cannot imagine their future without renewables with high share of bioenergy sources – not only for exhausting of fossil fuels but also for their energy safety or climate change. Based on these development trends and political stances it is possible to predict that the share of renewable sources on total gross energy consumption will successively grow as same as both scientific and technology progress and pricing accessibility of devices using renewables including bioenergy sources potential will grow as well.
