The aim of the research is to establish the chemical content of reed canary grass and their (C, S (SO2, SO3), Na, K) interconnection. Apart from this, there is a large role for environment – friendly growing technologies, which should guarantee qualitative soil tillage, suitable variety cultivation and the use of fertilizers according to the agrochemical parameters. In order to assess the suitability of the varieties of reed canary grass plants for energy production with the combustion process there were made the analysis of the chemical content in plants and factors (different N fertilizer rate) affecting it using canary reed grass. Field trial was carried out during 2011-2012. Carbon content for reed canary grass varieties “Bamse” and “Marathon” is by approximately one percent greater than for the variety “Pedja”. On average the carbon content was within the range 46-48 %, depending on the fertilizer rates and variety. As the phosphorus content increases in the energy plants, the potassium content increases, which is the main alkali element. For the reed canary grass variety “Pedja” a significant positive correlation between the phosphorus and sulphur content was found.
