• Bioenergy sources dominate the Hungarian renewable energy landscape:• In 2015 63,7 PJ energy was produced from biomass and the renewable parts of municipal waste (incineration)• Energy produced from biomass accounted for three times the amount of the rest the of renewable energy sources,
combined• Biofuels came at second place in 2014, producing 10,9 PJ in 2014, while biogas sources reached 4,2 PJ (ranking 4th after
geothermal)
2015-2020 will see the largest increase in the amount of energy produced from biological sources

• Based on our projections, bioenergy has a large growth potential, that is particularly strong in the period of 2015-2020• In the aforementioned period biomass usage is projected to increase by 5,2 PJ• The growth in biofuels is also significant, reaching 16,8 PJ in 2020 as opposed to 7 PJ in 2015
• But as we will see, there are some limiting factors
Electricity production though will not be the primary destination for bioenergy feedstock

• Based on our estimations, the bioenergy carriers will not be primarily used in electricity generation:• Biomass is projected to increase, but even in 2040 it is estimated that it will only produce ~ 5,07 PJ of electric power • But solar and wind power are projected to take up the majority of the renewable energy increase
• Having said that one also has to recognize that biomass mixing is quite popular in the second largest power plant in Hungary,a practice that is likely to increase if the EU ETS manages to prove to be more stringent
It is rather heat production that bioenergy sources will be used for

• Even nowadays, a considerable number of Hungarian households are using wood as their primary source of energy for heating
• We are expecting that year by year less and less residential biomass will be used• We project more than the doubling of biomass used in the district heating sector, and besides, industrial players are also
expected to start up more biomass based head production facilities
It is especially the poorest households that use wood as the (only) source of heating

• A large share of the poorest Hungarian households do not have access to the natural gas network, and as such, use mainly solid fuels (wood) to heat their homes
• As mentioned before, we do expect that the share of wood in the residential heating sector will become less important• As such biomass will become of less significance to the households themselves, limiting the growth of the bioenergy industry
In 10 years biomass will already be the single most important source of energy for the district heating sector

• At the moment natural gas supplies almost exclusively the district heating sector, with a large share of CHP plants• The share of natural gas is projected to decrease though to the advantage of the bioenergy sector• Biomass usage in the district heating sector will increase to the extent that by 2025 it will be the single most important
source of heat

• Northern Buda district heating system• 74 MWth operational CHP capacity• Considering the average climatic conditions
and demand for heat, the system could be complemented by a 20 MW wood chips boiler
• Results: • 30,4% energy from biomass• 58% from CHP• 11,6 from natural gas boilers
Biomass burning fits well into the district heating systems

• The 2014/94/EU Directive requires member states to roll-out the infrastructure for alternative fuels , such as:
• Electricity• Natural gas (CNG, LNG)• Hydrogen (optional)
• Gas based transport has advantages over other alternative fuels:
• Limited range anxiety• Wide range of perspective for applications• Lower carbon emissions• Lower PM, NOx, NO2, CO emissions
• 2014 Sweden: 57% of the biomethane produced was used in the transport sector
• The lower carbon intensity of natural gas as a fuel truly manifests itself when biomethane is used as the fuel - mixing
• It is estimated that Hungary has a large biogas potential, which after further treatment, can be used as biomethane in the transport sector
• Based on the most pessimistic projections, even the lowest biogas production potential may meet 19% of the energy consumption requirements of the entire transport sector (excluding other uses of biogas)
