Governor Addresses Second National Ag/Forestry Renewable Energy Summit

WASHINGTON, Saying the time is long overdue for
America to lead the world in creating clean, safe, renewable fuels,
Pennsylvania Governor Edward G.C."
The Governor was invited to address farmers, ranchers and private forest
landowners at the Second National Ag/Forestry Renewable Energy Summit because
of Pennsylvania's leadership in supporting and developing renewable energy
sources. "We
have invested approximately $15 million in state funds that have leveraged
more than $45 million in private funds for alternative fuels production. provides multi -discipline engineering to the following
market sectors: energy, ethanol + biomass, forest industries , industrial
manufacturing, microelectronics, pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals.
While much work remains to translate this success to the commercial
marketplace, Novozymes should be applauded for their fine efforts in this
collaboration," said Douglas E.com

Additionally, with state support, the first East Coast bio-
diesel injection blending facility opened in Pennsylvania .
"In Pennsylvania, we are using state funds as a magnet for private sector
investments in these fuels and, as a result, hundreds of millions of dollars
in new investment is flowing that will bring renewable energy projects online."
Pennsylvania also has launched an initiative that provides regulatory and
financial incentives to shut down older, dirtier, inefficient power plants and
re -power them with advanced coal gasification technology that produces
synthetic gas for manufacturing feedstocks, synthetic natural gas to heat
homes, transportation fuels and electricity, the Governor said.

The Rendell Administration is committed to creating a first-rate public
education system, protecting our most vulnerable citizens and continuing
economic investment to support our communities and businesses.
Based on its four years of focussed research in this area, Novozymes has
developed unique expertise in the conversion of corn stover and other biomass
feedstocks, expertise that will encourage broader industrial applications
beyond fuel ethanol.

Once commercially viable, a process of this type
could help reduce dependency on non-renewable and petroleum-based energy and
raw material sources. This 30-fold reduction from the starting point of more
than USD 5 dollars per gallon in 2001 is due to a combination of
pre-treatment technology developed by NREL and novel enzyme solutions from
Novozymes.
Gerson Santos, R+D Director at Abengoa Bioenergy, said, "These new enzyme
systems are the key to the future growth and geographical expansion of the
