Ecologization and renovation of the heating plant in Planá nad Lužnicí – Landscaping has been in progress around of the gas production unit. Final tests before the commissioning of the two remaining motorgenerators have been performed; the first two motorgenerators, which have been fully completed, are already used in the production process. The foundations and absorber of the desulphurization unit which will be located on the southern edge of the plant premises  are currently under construction; after the completion, the absorber including the stack will be 85 meters tall, only 15 meters lower than the existing stack. Read more information about the project in Planá nad Lužnicí in section PLANA PROJECT. Photographs from the construction process are available in the PHOTOGALLERY.

Renovation of the heat distribution system -  the first part of the project has been completed except for minor backlogs; as early as this year we expect to recognize the difference resulting from properly dimensioned pipelines. A part of the money to cover the first invoice will be obtained from the European Union – the Cohesion Fund – Operational programme Environment .  Works will then be resumed in spring 2015 when  the heat distribution system in Silon s.r.o. premises will be renovated and the hot-water pipeline for heat supplies to the town of Sezimovo Ústí will be replaced.
