The County Clare Wood Energy Project (CCWEP), in association with Rural Resource Development, Teagasc and Sustainable Energy Ireland (SEI), will host a National Wood Energy Open Day on Friday, 25th April 2008.
This landmark event will open up the County’s wood energy scene for all 300 delegates, featuring thinning, chipping and boiler site visits, which will be practically delivered around the county, by a host of leading figures both nationally and locally in Clare, where CCWEP and its clients have been 'blazing a trail' in the wood energy sector for the past 3 years. The Open Day will also include the launch of CCWEP’s ‘Wood Energy Guidelines’, a publication outlining best practice in woodchip boiler installation, by Minister Mary Wallace, T.D., Dept. of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food & Launch, as well as the launch of a wood energy promotional campaign by CCWEP incorporating its ‘Wood Energy Promotional Brochure’.
The Forest Service, CCWEP, Teagasc, Sustainable Energy Ireland and the Limerick Clare Energy Agency will host information stands at the Clare Inn on the day.
