Though biomass heating systems are one of the oldest energy systems in use today, technology has advanced over the years to optimize efficiency, convenience and safety.
During a Dec. 14 webinar hosted by the Biomass Thermal Energy Council, leaders in the industry will discuss their advanced technologies and what they visualize for the future of biomass thermal technology. Presenters will provide an overview of system improvements designed to meet evolving customer needs and local standards, and also provide participants an opportunity to learn about state and federal policy options and other avenues to expand the biomass industry.
