IEA/EPRI
Biomass Workshop
ACERC was pleased
to host a joint biomass workshop with the International
Energy Association and the Electric
Power Research Institute the day before the ACERC Conference, on February
19, 2003. The workshop was held in the Heritage Center at the University
of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Representatives from
several companies and countries presented their findings and developments
in the biomass industry. Each presentation included a question and answer
section to encourage discussion about biomass-related issues. This workshop
was open to the public.
Electronic copies
of the presentations are available at the IEA Energy Task 32 website at
