The project aims to demonstrate the possible uses of biogas which is revealed as a result of the anaerobic conversion of the animal wastes as a source of renewed energy and, for that reason, present the construction of an innovator system which is able to respond the local necessity of energy and is appropriate for the usage in a local level. In that way, both the problems caused by animal wastes will be decreased on a large scale and economically productive renewable energy source will be submitted to the usage in a small scale.
There are 47 rural settling areas in the pack region of Küre Mountains National Park.
