The main goal of this paper is the overview of the scope and dynamics of
biomass production as a renewable energy source for substitution of coal
in the production of electrical energy in the Kolubara coal basin. In
order to successfully realize this goal, it was necessary to develop a
dynamic model of the process of coal production, overburden dumping and
re-cultivation of dumping sites by biomass planting. The results
obtained by simulation of the dynamic model of biomass production in
Kolubara mine basin until year 2045 show that 6870 hectares of
overburden waste dumps will be re-cultivated by biomass plantations.
Biomass production modeling point out the significant benefits of
biomass production by planting the willow Salix viminalis cultivated for
energy purposes. Under these conditions, a 0.6\% participation of
biomass at the end of the period of intensive coal production, year
2037, is achieved. With the decrease of coal production to 15 million
tons per year, this percentage steeply rises to 1.4\% in 2045. This
amount of equivalent tons of coal from biomass can be used for coal
substitution in the production of electrical energy.
