Manual of procedures for renewable energy projects

The Manual of procedures for renewable energy projects contains guidelines for renewable energy projects both large and small.

While the Manual of procedures is not legally binding, it provides information on procedures. The competent authorities assess the permits and other administrative procedures needed for implementing a project separately in each case.

The Manual of procedures for renewable energy projects covers

  • bio-CHP and bioheat plants
  • biogas production and use in energy generation
  • onshore and offshore wind energy
  • solar energy
  • heat pumps
  • geothermal energy
  • hydropower projects
  • biofuel manufacture
  • hydrogen production.
