The growth and stability of the world economy is hindered because of the exhaustion of the fossil and traditional energy sources and because of environmental consequences and increasing costs of their use. The energy supply of is increasingly unstable and unsafe because in countries which suffer from high dependence of energy import. The traditional sectors have been facing recession during the last couple of years and the recovery also highly depends on new solutions in energy supply. The rural regions are more vulnerable from both economic and social, because their adaptive capacities are limited. The main goal is this paper is to show the key factors of the limited possibilities of their recovery, such as low level of income, high rate of unemployment and migration, high share of unskilled labour, lack of capital and appropriate know-how in energetics. Development requires a new approach in energetics, in agriculture and also in waste management, resulting in high utilization of the renewable energies generating regional economic growth. In this paper, a Hungarian case study will be presented, which will show one solution of a rural municipality for viability, stability, job creation, and economic and social development. The paper concludes the necessity of the role of the public private partnership and of the increasing social capital, in the future economic environmental and social balance in the rural area
