Had a great time at the workshop, which had attendees from all over the US and even one fellow from Argentina! It was good to meet all the people at Springboard and hear about their new ideas to make small-scale biodiesel production a reality for businesses, municipalities, colleges, farmers, and just folks who want to enjoy fuel independence.
I still really like the model of decentralized fuel production, where people or organizations produce more of their own energy. Speaking of energy, we also got to visit the Sierra Nevada Brewery in Chico, where we saw their BioPro and their gigantic solar array (1.9 MegaWatt!) which supplies most of their power needs, and electric vehicle charging stations.
And of course sampled some of their great beer. They are truly a leader in sustainable and green energy.
