A long-term sustainable alternative.

Increasing environmental concerns, particularly with respect to greenhouse gases and global warming, have resulted in increasing demand for alternatives to the traditional and polluting fossil fuels. And the exhaustible nature of traditional energy sources and rising energy demand have resulted in inflated energy prices.

Renewable Energy Sources (RES), such as biomass, offer a solution to these issues. They reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, have an overall smaller environmental impact, are cost-effective compared to traditional sources and cannot be depleted.

The EU has renewed and strengthened its commitment to the Kyoto Protocol by proposing a renewable energy directive that would result in the following overall targets by 2020 (in relation to 2005):

• A 20% increase in energy efficiency
• A 20% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions
• A 20% share of renewables in overall EU energy consumption
• A 10% biofuel component in vehicle fuel

As a renewable energy provider, Thenergo offers a long-term sustainable alternative to help meet these targets, in turn laying the foundation for a greener future.
