Remedial actions considered by policy makers, regulatory agencies at state, provincial \/ territorial and municipal governments to control air quality are numerous. This event aims to bring inspirations and experiences across from Europe and North America on strategies for reducing air pollution and is intended as an exchange between the IEA Bioenergy experts and North American stakeholders. Most of the IEA Bioenergy Task 32 member country representatives will be in attendance, allowing a chance for networking, to learn about how the challenge of reaching a large number of wood combustion users is tackled in other countries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Draft programme:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>7:30 \u2013 Welcome and introduction<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Sebnem Madrali, IEA Bioenergy Task 32\/CanmetENERGY \u2013 Natural Resources Canada<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>7:40 \u2013 Strategies for reducing the impact on air quality from residential wood combustion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Dr. Hans Hartmann, <\/em><em>Technology and Support Centre of Renewable Raw Materials (TFZ)<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>8:00 \u2013 State of Alaska Fairbanks PM2.5 Nonattainment Area Overview<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Steven Hoke, Fairbanks North Star Borough (FNSB), Air Quality Department and Cory McDonald, <\/em><em>Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>8:20 Introduction to CCME Guidance Manual on Managing Air Emissions from Small Solid Biomass Combustors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Steven Law, Ontario Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>8:40 Municipal Biomass Combustion in Canada &#8211; Notes From Each Side of the Podium<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>David Dubois, Fink Machine, and Councillor Village of Cache Creek\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>9:00 Moderated round table discussion between speakers with questions from the audience<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>9:25 Concluding Remarks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Expert Round Table Discussion organized by IEA Bioenergy Task 32 (Biomass Combustion) &nbsp; Timing: Thursday, 5th of October 2023, 7:30 \u2013 9:30 Alaska Daylight Saving Time Zone, USA (GMT-8) Concept: Hybrid event \u2013 speakers present in Fairbanks and online, audience online.
