Humber Chemical Focus has announced a conference on the UK’s emerging and rapidly growing bio-renewables sector:

Bio-Renewables in the Humber – 20th October, Bishop Burton College, near Beverley

The event will feature a mix of participants and speakers from industry as well as policy experts. UK government targets, principally the Climate Change Act of 2008 and the EU renewable energy directive, mean that renewable energy must increase its contribution to our energy use by five times by 2020. Bio-renewables in particular is set to make up a third of the UK’s total renewable capability by 2020.

The conference will focus on opportunities for renewables companies and innovative research groups to contribute to meeting these objectives. Please visit the conference web site above to find out how to register to attend.
