The Wood Pellet Association of Canada AGM and Conference is slated for November 27 and 28 in beautiful old Quebec City. This year's gathering includes a tour, networking evening, conference, and supplier showcase. Housed in the stunning Chateau Laurier boutique hotel inside the walled city, the WPAC AGM and Conference preliminary agenda has been set.
November 27
We are trying to arrange a visit to the Cité Verte district heating system - an urban central heating system composed of four boilers using wood pellets for space and domestic water heating (see the Sept/Oct issue of Canadian Biomass for details). This wil be followed by a networking cocktail at the Chateau Laurier.
November 28
Supplier Showcase
We would like to give associate members an opportunity to give short (ten minute) presentations to promote their products and services to the producing members. We will have room in the agenda for six suppliers. If you are interested, please contact me. Note - this opportunity is limited to members only.
