The way forward for the use of wood and agricultural waste for energy production in S.E. Asia

 

 

The Project ASIA PRO-ECO

 

The way forward for the use of wood and agricultural waste for energy production in S.E. Asia

 

This project is centred around the staging of an international conference on the subject of the development of dendro-power and the use of agricultural waste for energy production, to be entitled “Issues for the Sustainable Use of Biomass Resources for Energy”. It will provide a means to review progress made within the region and the lessons learnt and what should be the future strategy for increasing the proportion of energy produced from these sources. The conference is targeted at researchers, energy policy makers, farm groups and private companies involved in sustainable energy production from wood fuel and agricultural waste working in the region and involved either in the growing side or in the conversion process. Following the conference a series of working group meetings are planned with additional data collection and linked studies culminating in the production of a series of manuals and guides to the technology.
