Abstract in different language:	Biomass it the oldest used fuel of the mankind (approximately 40 000years) and still today it is important worldwide source of the energy. Its proportion on the world energetic balance according to up to date source is around 16%. The highest proportion of the biomass usage shows for example: Africa 50%, Indonesia 40%, Asia 33%, South America 28% and China 21%. Czech Republic has got a very long tradition in the usage of different forms of biomass for gaining energy from renewable sources (OZE). In the period of 20tees till 50tees of the last century (it means from the beginning of the first world war till the end of second world war was biomass used except from gaining of energy for heating, cooking and heating of the water also for production of the spirit, wooden coal, wood gas for drive of different machines, including cars. The usage of biomass in Czech Republic for energetic purposes has got a dominant place comparing to other sources and possibilities of usage renewable resource of the energy as energy of wind, water, sun and so on. These days biomass participates by 65% on the total usage of the renewable resources of the energy. State energetic policy of the Czech Republic regards biomass as an important source of energy and it assumes that it will participate on the total balance of usage of renewable resources by 80% in 2020 and by 85% in 2030. Renewable resources and biomass especially are basis of energetic sources for the future. Except of energetic contribution the biomass significantly contributes to the stabilization and gradual decrease of the changes on the climate by the human activity.
