The rising cultivation of energy crops, supported by political instruments, has a negative environmental impact on the natural resources soil, water and biodiversity. The existing agricultural legislation can not avoid such negative environmental impact. Thus, it seems reasonable to realign the existing support scheme for energy crop use to a system that operates regional and crop specific. This work identified a method as basis for a control mechanism for an environmental friendly support scheme of energy crops. The design of a regional and crop specific premium is described as a possible political instrument.
