Abstract

In order to define the models of energy plantations of the short rotation on deposols of open-pit coal mines, The Serbian Ministry of Science and Technological Development supported the researches aimed at the determination of the post-exploitation areas suitable for the short rotation plantations in the Kolubara basin. Besides the research of ecological conditions of the post-exploitation areas, research of the development and productivity of biomass in the forest cultures established during the biological recultivation, the comparative experiment was set with the number of fast-growing species, in order to determine the technology of the soil preparation, feeding, density of sowing, measures of protection, effects of phytoremediation, the selection of the mechanical devices, the analysis of the economic parameters, etc. The aim of the research is the increase of the participation of energy from biomass and partial replacement of the fossil fuels, in accordance with the Kyoto Protocol, Davos Forum and other international agreements. This paper presents some results which are part of the project. Key words: Biomass, short rotation plantations, deposols, Kolubara lignite basin.
