ICYMI: National Biodiesel Conference

Cindy Zimmerman

The National Biodiesel Conference & Expo was held at the Fort Worth Convention Center January 22-24. The event included a vehicle showcase and ride-and-drive opportunity alongside demonstrations and presentations on the latest in the industry. This conference also celebrated the 25th anniversary of the National Biodiesel Board.

Among the highlights was an award to USDA Deputy Secretary Steve Censky for his work in helping develop the biodiesel industry during his years as CEO of the American Soybean Association. Other highlights – a panel with the makers of the Discovery Channel’s Hot Grease documentary about the biodiesel industry, a petroleum industry leaders panel, and the biodiesel vehicle showcase featuring the latest from Ford, John Deere, General Motors, Caterpillar, and Optimus – with a semi that served as the stage back screen.
