The contribution introduces the project TACR TA04020723, Development of a pilot plant for monitoring of Hg emissions reduction from large and medium capacity energy sources. The project responds to the new EU BAT legislative, where both emission limits for Hg concentration in flue gas and continual Hg concentration measurement requirements are stated. The objective of the contribution is an introduction of the project and the results gained in 2014. Analyses of certain lignite and coal samples were done to specify the Hg amount and balance of other compounds concentration was calculated with regard to the specifics of combustion process of a particular power source. At the end of 2014, a measurement was carried out at the large power plant. Hg concentrations were measured in the combustion products and were compared with balance calculation.
