The demand for reliable fuel sources beyond traditional fossil fuels has never been greater. Arguably, this is no longer simply an “alternative”…it is an imperative. Alternative Fuels are now a key component of global public policies and there is an increasing sense of urgency to address the technical, commercial and legislative challenges facing this developing industry.
The “Alternative Fuels Summit” is the fourth in a series of events of this kind: a conversation joining thought and action leaders from multiple backgrounds, all motivated by the same goals:
- Aid the United States in meeting its energy and fuel demands with alternative feedstocks and processes
- Leverage best practices from related industries to ensure commercial viability of this burgeoning industry
- Identify contemporary technologies which provide safe operations, environmental protection and sustainable commercial viability
This event will be restricted to 50 delegates, to ensure opportunities for dialog with presenters and peers. If you are actively engaged in Alternative Fuels development or production, this is an event you don’t want to miss.
- Government perspective on the importance of bioenergy
- Feedstock availability/ sustainability
- Pilot plant to production scale up
- Governmental and legislative support for alternative fuels development
- Best practices in project implementation
- Role of automation technologies in risk mitigation and schedule optimization
