Gov. Jim Doyle has announced the members of the Consortium on Biobased Industry, which is charged with preparing a roadmap over the next year on how to best support the development of biobased products and energy in Wisconsin.
“In Wisconsin, we may not have oil fields,” Doyle said Friday. “But we can grow our own biobased resources. We will use these resources to produce renewable energy and value-added products, and reduce our dependence on oil.”
UW-Madison professors Charles Hill and Michael Sussman were among those appointed by the governor.
