Understanding stakeholder perceptions of bioenergy is an important factor in the development of bioenergy industries in the Pacific Northwest. The Advanced Hardwood Biofuels Northwest extension team surveyed three groups – landowners, environmental professionals, and extension professionals – to identify their interests and concerns surrounding bioenergy. This webinar will cover the results of these studies and examine how this information can be used moving forward.

Are you ready to plant poplar? Are you optimizing your planting strategy? This workshop will focus on the benefits municipalities gain from growing poplar and possible market opportunities.

Celebrate National Bioenergy Day with a week-long webinar series.

Woody biomass can be converted into a variety of biofuels and biochemical. Researchers at the University of Washington are fine-tuning the process to convert hybrid poplars into acetic acid, ethanol, jet fuel, and other products. This webinar will take a step-by-step look at how lignocellulosic biomass is converted to chemicals then biofuels.

Presented by Nathan Parker, Boon-Ling Yeo, and Josue Medelin-Azuara from the University of California Davis.

Presented by Brian Stanton from GreenWood Resources.

Presented by Dr. Gregmar Galinato, Associate Professor, School of Economic Sciences, WSU.

Advanced Hardwood Biofuels Northwest invites you to join AHB researchers for a day out in the field at the project’s Clarksburg Demonstration Site. The hybrid poplars near Clarksburg, California will be showing much of their full re-growth potential as they continue into their second growing season after being initially harvested in 2014. Lunch included!
