Title: Great Lakes Regional Biomass Energy Program:

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5323261

This is the first quarterly report of the fifth year of operation of the Great Lakes Regional Biomass Energy Program. Stressing near-term biomass feedstock production techniques and conversion processes, the objective of the program is to increase the use of biomass energy by the public and private sectors in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin. During this quarter under the State Grant Program, two waste-to-energy workshops were sponsored by Iowa and Illinois attracting over 200 attendees. Michigan and Wisconsin continued their successful efforts to convince energy users in the state to convert to wood fuels. Michigan used oil overcharge funds to sign wood energy design grants with five public facilities and Wisconsin performed three wood energy analyses. Minnesota began work on an waste-to-energy guidebook for municipal leaders, while Ohio held its first biomass Advisory Council meeting.
