The heating plant in Tatabánya is gas-fueled, but ongoing modifications will allow it to run on up to 86% biomass, Kocsis added.

Tatabánya Erőmű managing director Zoltán Kamarás said his company is spending HUF 7 bln on the project, including HUF 1.5 bln in European Union and state grant money. The development will add 41 jobs at the plant, which currently has a headcount of 100.
