Second Biofuels International expo & conference to be held in Calgary

After 2009’s successful combined Biofuels International/Tank Storage Canada expo & conference in Montreal we are pleased to announce that this year’s event will be held on 27-29th September in the new location of Calgary, Alberta.

The biofuels sector in Canada is just beginning but all the signs are that it will grow into a strong and successful industry. The government has made clear longterm commitments to renewable energy, such as a 5% inclusion of ethanol in petrol in 2010, and a 2% biodiesel inclusion in diesel by 2011.

Alberta is under increasing pressure to become more environmentally friendly and is home to the largest biorefinery in North America.

During 2009-10 $55 million (€33 million) will be committed for biofuel initiatives to support the development of renewable energy and offer additional economic opportunities for rural Alberta and the agriculture and forestry industries.

Biofuels International Canada expo & conference will bring together producers, regulators and investors to discuss how best to meet these goals and support the market’s continued development.

Calgary is the ideal location for this event, and as an added bonus visitors and delegates will have free access to the concurrent Tank Storage Canada expo & conference – focusing on terminal and tank farm developments throughout Canada and Northern America.
