Montana: Counties Target Federal Money for Woody Biofuel Projects
The Associated Press reports that three southwestern Montana counties have asked the state’s congressional delegation to try to secure $800,000 in federal money to fund a handful of pilot biofuel projects.
The projects would use a pyrolysis system to turn beetle-killed trees into energy. The application, which seeks an appropriation in the Department of Energy’s Energy and Water Bill, says local forests produce 350,000 tons of woody biomass every year.
