By 2020, proportion of renewable energy sources should be around 20 per cent of the total energy consumption in the European Union, according to the new treaty signed by European leaders in 2009. This vast amount of renewable energy can be sourced from hydroelectric, geothermal, wind, solar power and, of course, from biofuels. To achieve this ambitious target, new technologies must be invented to exploit energy from the abiotic source of renewables and new energy plant species should be developed and produced, serving as source for solid, liquid biofuels and for biogas production. The most intensively studied and used bioenergy crops include miscanthus, reed canary grass, willows and poplars. We already have considerable knowledge about these energy plants from their taxonomical relations to their detailed crop technologies. In this chapter, we introduce a novel energy plant that has been cultivated for more than a century in many parts of the world for numerous purposes (e.g. land remediation, erosion control, forage), but its potential for energy production has not yet been realized. Tall wheatgrass, a new energy crop (*Elymus elongatus* subsp. *ponticus* cv. Szarvasi-1) has recently been introduced to cultivation in Hungary to provide biomass for solid biofuel energy production. The cultivar was developed in Hungary. The main goal of our research was to investigate the performance of Szarvasi-1 energy grass under different growing conditions (e.g. soil types, nutrition supply). We focused on the ecological background, biomass yield, weed

composition, morphology, ecophysiology and the genetics of the plant.
