Welcome to Bioenergy Deployment Consortium (BDC)
Our goal is simple. We want to get efficient and economical bioenergy facilities deployed to help industry and the nation. We work to keep members informed and to help them broker partnerships that will achieve the deployment goal.
As you review our website, note the significant archive of articles and information about bioenergy deployment and poilicy. Let us explain how to become a member to take advantage of the educational and partnering opportunities.

We have two member meetings each year where presentations are given and biofacility tours are provided. Members can access presentations on the library page.
Join the other companies who are using the organization to stay abreast of the latest and working together to accelerate deployment. The cost is minimal and the value is tremendous. Thanks,
Robert Cadwalader

OUR MISSION:
The BDC is a 501 (C) (3) non-profit organization whose mission is to assist its members and build private and public institutional readiness to participate in the U.S. bio-economy with the focus on deployment of developed technologies.
MISSION STRATEGY
To achieve this mission, BDC's strategy is to keep our members abreast of the latest pertinent technology and government policy, while educating members of the energy industry, its nationwide partners, government officials, and interested members of the general public about the potential for the nation of producing bio-chemicals, biofuels and bio-power, improving energy efficiency and energy sustainability while reducing GHG emissions.
TACTICS
BDC will conduct semi-annual on-site member symposiums with industrial bioenergy facility tours focusing on technical topics, funding sources, and relevant government programs as directed by the steering committee.
BDC will provide regular, timely updates on those same topics relative to new technology information and changes in funding opportunities and government incentives. This will include maintaining the BDC website with searchable database of relevant current and past articles, and past symposium presentations.
BDC will also work to secure funding or additional funding to deploy pertinent bioenergy projects. This could include leveraging private funds with federal, state and private funds.
Other activities will include preparation of white papers, partnering with organizations which have parallel missions, and sending out periodic press releases on BDC activities.
