Wood Energy Workshop - Building Local Wood Heat Markets RASLRES is a European bio-energy project led by the Western Development Commission. RASLRES goes to the heart of the local community by using local resources and supporting local people to develop renewable energy projects and in turn creating jobs and enterprise opportunities for rural communities. RASLRES is funded by the INTERREG IVB - Northern Periphery Programme. Our project partners are from Sweden, Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Faroe Islands and Finland. This workshop brings together industry experts to investigate how to build local loops of demand and supply in the wood heat market. It is of specific interest to farmers, foresters and fuel processors. It will inform potential users on key issues for developing a wood energy project and discuss experiences in the region to date. A key element of the workshop will be the presentation of a report, which was carried out in partnership with the SEAI and Teagasc, on the potential of energy crops in the Western Region. While this workshop is free of charge, registration is required.
