Conference Biomass and alternative fuels in the heating industry

The Biomass and Alternative Fuels in District Heating Conference is an industry meeting dedicated to the energy and district heating sector in Poland, with the aim of building business relationships and imparting expertise.

This year, the editors of Biomass Magazine invite industry representatives to the Luxor Hotel in Lublin on October 17-18. The country’s heating industry needs a new strategy that reflects the challenges facing the sector. Decarbonization, modernization, financing – these three topics are key today in the conversation about the future of #heating in Poland. Which fuel will be optimal for installations? How is the market for alternative fuels developing? How to get financial support for modernization of a district heating company?

We will be answering these questions during the 6th Biomass and Alternative Fuels in Heating Conference – a meeting of the heating industry, also addressed to representatives of the biomass, power and waste sectors.

The conference program also includes a study visit to the Megatem biomass CHP plant in Lublin!

 

The industry meeting is addressed to:

  • representatives of heating companies
  • representatives of energy companies
  • producers and suppliers of biomass
  • government administration and local governments
  • waste sector
  • suppliers of technologies for district heating
  • industry institutions
