The Bioenergy Association of California

The Bioenergy Association of California (BAC) was established in 2013 to promote sustainable bioenergy development.

BAC’s members include private companies, public agencies, local governments, investors, consultants, nonprofits, individuals, and others interested in promoting community-scale bioenergy generation.
