21 Audience input Do you have a bioheat story to share? Success? How so? Failure? What happened? What did you need to make it happen? 21

22 22

23 Opportunities in YOUR Community 23

24 New opportunities No access to natural gas New builds Hydronic vs forced air Bioheat at design stage New developments Subdivisions and industrial parks Biomass District Heating at design stage 24

25 Deep Fuel Switching Road/infrastructure work District heating infrastructure Natural refresh cycle of boilers and furnaces and fuel tanks Bioheat as first-considered option 25

26 What are the opportunities in YOUR community? (30 minutes) Community Name Your name and contact info Opportunity type and timeline Additional information Pick 1 from your table to share with group Mytown Dawn Lambe dawnl@biomassnorth.org New build in Spring 2019 New industrial park in 2023 Roadword in downtown core in 2020 Call Dave at ### to get more details on timelines and contact me to present to council 26

27 What does your community need to act? (30 minutes) Education citizens, HVAC suppliers, builders Expertise By-law changes Access to biomass fuels Subsidies/funded program for conversions Discuss at your table. Pick top 3. Rank and report. 27

28 Call to Action Funding Program What existing funding programs exist that can be leveraged for a program of this nature? NOHFC FedNor IFI & SPI REDI? 28

29 Call to Action Funding Program What does an optimal funding program look like? Subsector specific? Residential is easy but commercial/mush sector has huge impact What is the optimal subsidy structure? Percentage with cap? Repayable loan? Flat rate per scale? 29

30 Call to Action Funding Program How do we put it together? Steering committee who needs to be on it? Who needs to be on the communications stream? Who needs a heads up? Federal Provincial 30
