The search for neutrinoless double beta decay probes lepton numberconservation with high sensitivity and investigates the neutrino nature andmass scale. Experiments presently in preparation will cover thequasi-degeneracy region of the neutrino mass pattern. Probing the so-calledinverted hierarchy region requires improved sensitivities and next-generationexperiments, based either on large expansions of the present searches or on newideas. We examine here the potential of a novel technology relying on ZnMoO4scintillating bolometers, which can provide an experiment with background closeto zero in the ton x year exposure scale. The promising performance of a pilotdetector is presented, both in terms of energy resolution and backgroundcontrol. A preliminary study of the sensitivities of future experiments showsthat the inverted hierarchy region is within the reach of the technique hereproposed. A realistic phased approach program towards a next-generation searchis presented and briefly discussed.
