Abstract: Decisions on the selection and promotion of various energy scenarios in the region is not just a matter of economic considerations.The situation concerning use of renewable resources in the EU and the Czech Republic is discussed, focusing on the use of biomass. Alternative resources can contribute very significantly to energy independence and financial advantages for a region. The Vysoèina region in the Czech Republic, where the option of expanded assessment is illustrated, was selected for a case study. The suitability of energy sources is assessed from the economic aspect and also environmental and social aspects. As possible variants were chosen natural gas, coal and biomass. These were further evaluated using one of the multi-criteria methods techniques. Use of biomass is a very promising area, which provides opportunities and also specific risks with regard to further development.
