 Recognizing the array of energy resources and options from hydrocarbons and renewable energy forms, Canada is contemplating the development of a Canadian Energy Strategy. In 2012, CanBio will develop a Canadian Bioenergy Strategy outlining the use of biomass for the production of bio-energy, bio-chemicals, bio-pharmaceuticals, and other bio-materials, and creating new jobs across the country. CanBio is holding a conference and trade show in Alberta to explore options to develop the bio-economy, and options for utilities, oil and gas, forestry, agriculture and bioenergy industry. The Advancing the Bio-economy conference is being held in Edmonton on April 25 and 26, 2012, and features a pre-conference tour on April 24. Registration for the pre-conference tour is $90, GST included. Conference registration is $410 plus GST; however, early bird prices are available beginning at $360, CanBio members receive additional discounts. A full agenda and online registration are available on the CanBio website at www.canbio.ca. For further information, contact Noam Sugarman at info@canbio.ca or 705-472-2280.
