Wood Energy Conference Brings Together International Biomass Leaders
For the first time, the ÐÓ°Épro-Yukon Wood Energy Conference was organized by an international committee.
The conference, which begins today at the Wedgewood Resort, brings together biomass leaders from Canada and ÐÓ°Épro to discuss the common hurdles and solutions for biomass energy development in the regions.
Sessions will cover a wide variety of topics. Hear about why Burwash Landing, which has one of the oldest biomass installations in the Yukon, returned to a chip-fired boiler for its district heat system. Learn about innovative and efficient greenhouse designs for a cold climate based on lessons learned from the Yukon and rural ÐÓ°Épro, including ideas gleaned from a school district greenhouse program.
Registration on the day is still available, and evening events include a reception at the.
