UW Energy Resources Council to Meet March 11

The University of Wyoming Energy Resources Council (ERC) will meet at 8 a.m. Friday, March 11, at the BP Collaboration Center in the Energy Innovation Center on the UW campus.

Council members will hear updates on personnel, divisions, legislative issues, the Enhanced Oil Recovery Institute and new budgetary amendments.

The council will reconvene after lunch as the Advanced Conversion Technologies Task Force (ACTTF) to hear information about the Integrated Test Center, technology commercialization and updates on the Centers of Excellence.

The ERC was established by the Wyoming State Legislature in 2006. Made up of representatives from industry, state government and academia, the council advises the School of Energy Resources on priorities for research and outreach. The ACCTF consists of the voting members of the Energy Resources Council; it awards funds for advanced conversion research.

The UW School of Energy Resources (SER) provides undergraduate and graduate education, conducts research on existing and emerging industry resources, and disseminates scientific, engineering and economic information to support Wyoming’s near- and long-term energy future.
