2	The Power of ‘e’ Industry: engineering-environment-energy-economics PSE/WPPF: enrollment-endowments-excellence
3	A Few Paper Industry Statistics According to AF&PA, USA capacity is down 7.3% from 2000-08 Predicted to drop another 1.9% in 2009 FAO predicts that North American paper industry will increase production at 1.8%/yr from 2005-2020, and Production in Asia and Europe will grow at 4.3%/yr and 2.6%/yr, respectively
4	A Few Paper Industry Statistics Paper per capita consumption in USA peaked in 1995 Developing world is rapidly increasing paper production capacity Production in developed world is increasing at a slower rate What is driving changes in the industry and where does the power of ‘e’ fit in?

10	Wood Energy Worldwide, roundwood used for energy is comparable with roundwood used for industrial purposes Includes fuelwood, charcoal, burning wastes like black liquor, and burning wood specifically for heat and power generation
11	Wood Energy FAO estimates that biomass energy production was 583 M tons oil equivalent (MTOE) in 1970; 792 MTOE in 2005; and 1,183 MTOE in 2030 In terms of wood consumption, these figures translate to 2 Bm³ in 1970; 2.6 Bm³in2005 and 3.8 Bm³in 2030
12	Wood Energy Europe is expected to increase its energy production from biomass between 2005-20; the most of any region Large scale biorefinery usage (biofuels) will significantly increase worldwide wood consumption
13	PSE/WPPF UG enrollment at 75 students Cost of resident UG tuition will increase by 14% to $7125 + fees = $7677 in FY 2010 and another 14% in FY 2011 Endowment operating accounts are down 25% for FY 2009 (from FY 2008) and will drop another 25% for FY 2010 and be held constant for four years
14	PSE/WPPF To maintain excellence PSE program needs excellent students, faculty, facilities and support PSE faculty needs to grow in both number and disciplinary diversity to meet needs of the future State budget reductions will make this very difficult
15	WPPF and PSE Missions Focus on sustainability, stewardship and economic vitality Maintain capacity of UW faculty Produce excellent students for the industry Engage alumni in activities Be financially healthy
16	Issues and Opportunities For Paper Industry Biomass conversion for energy and transportation fuels New bio-products for a variety of uses New pulping processes that are more energy efficient and environmentally friendly Develop new markets
17	Issues and Opportunities for PSE/WPPF Continue to recruit excellent students with adequate scholarship support Add faculty capacity in program Improve educational and research facilities
