About Us
The PA Biomass Working Group is a collection of businesses, universities, government agencies, foresters, economic development partners and environmental advocacy groups working together to help residents of PA and the Northeast learn how renewable fuels can reduce costs and build community self-reliance in an environmentally sound way.
Our vision is to establish Pennsylvania as a national leader in the development of sustainable biomass feedstocks and conversion technologies to produce energy, biofuels, and bioproducts. This will contribute to the creation and growth of a new bioindustry, which is vital to the economic, social, and environmental success of Pennsylvania. The PA Biomass Working Group is appreciative of the financial support being provided by the West Penn Power Sustainable Energy Fund (WPPSEF) and The Pennsylvania State University (Energy Institute and
Penn State Institutes of Energy and the Environment). This support will be used to expand our activities during the 2007/ 2008 timeframe.
