Drivers
• Economy – Forest Industries/Balance of Trade• Mandates • Energy Security – Supply disruptions, Middle East• Environment
The United States, with 5% of the worlds population, consumes roughly 25% of total energy production, yet only holds 2% of the proven petroleum
reserves.

Biomass is a vital part of America’s clean energy future
as we work to decrease our dependence on foreign oil. Biomass projects will help grow regional economics, create new jobs, improve, and protect our environment. We will need architects and engineers to design these plants, skilled labors to build them and trained technicians to operate them. – Tom Vilsack, June 22, 2011
