Along with other industry experts, Dr Colby, Colby Industries’ Managing Director was an invited expert speaker at the Yorke and Mid North Bioenergy Forum on 21 September 2018. 

The Forum was organised by the South Australian Government, Yorke & Mid North Regional Development Association (RDA), Legatus Group and Goyder Institute.  Proving advice based on his experience as a project advisor and assessing the feasibility of numerous bioenergy projects across South Australia and interstate, he provided guidance to those new to bioenergy on where bioenergy opportunities would most likely occur and how to start their own journey towards successfully commercialising these opportunities. His talk included real-world examples of what bioenergy plants can cost to build and operate and innovative ways to earn revenue from bioenergy and residues these plants produce and/or from other business costs they can avoid.  For further information on the Yorke and Mid North Bioenergy Forum, see: http://www.renewablessa.sa.gov.au/bioenergy-roadmap-forum-yorke-mid-north.
