BDC, the Bioenergy Deployment Consortium, will host its Spring Symposium in Knoxville, Tennessee May 7-9 at the Airport Marriott Courtyard. The Symposium includes tours of the Oak Ridge National Laboratories and DuPont Cellulosic Ethanol. These tours will take place before and after an all day panel on May 8 that will focus on “Opportunities for Bioenergy.”
The panels include:
A key representative from the Army's Energy Initiative Task Force (EI-TF) will discuss the Army's goals and recent RFP, while Todd Campbell and Bobby Goode from USDA will discuss current and future funding opportunities, as will Neil Rossmeissl from DOE. This is the first time that BDC has hosted a military representative at the meeting. The military has land, facilities, and demand for biofuels and power.
