An article by from Ellyn Ferguson, Gannett News Service, published in The [Oshkosh] Northwestern:

WASHINGTON - Wisconsin is among nine states selected to design policies and regulations to increase energy efficiency and boost utilities' energy production from renewable fuels, the U.S. Energy Department announced Monday.

Wisconsin will receive a $400,000 grant to review the state's 25 oldest coal-fired boilers that generate 85 megawatts or less in electricity. The goal will be to convert, if feasible, the boilers to wood-fired boilers. The state also will devise a low-interest loan program for renewable fuels projects.
