Fuels for Schools Grapples with Funding Difficulties – Program has installed 10 biomass boilers in Montana

Six years and 10 energy-efficient schools later, Montana’s Fuels for Schools and Beyond http://www.fuelsforschools.info/ program is in danger of running out of funding.

The six-state Fuel for Schools and Beyond started up in 2003 to promote the use of wood biomass as a clean energy source in private and public buildings, with an emphasis on schools. To date, 15 biomass boilers have been installed through the program, 10 of which are in western Montana, including ones in Glacier and Eureka high schools.
