The Sustainable Energy Working Group (SEWG) is organized to coordinate and communicate research and outreach activities at the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station (NJAES) in the bioenergy arena.
Our goal is to create a synergistic environment through collaboration and education, fostering the success of bioenergy as viable and sustainable.

- Eric Lam delivers a talk about duckweed in Brazil AgenciaFapesp.br, 8/11/2010 - Eric Lam (Plant Biology and Pathology) delivered a talk about duckweed in Brazil, as reported below. The Rutgers Duckweed Stock Cooperative, located on the George H. Cook Campus, maintains living specimens of over 530 duckweed strains from across the globe.
- Hazelnuts: Not Only for Food, But Fuel ABCNews.com, 8/13/2010 - Tom Molnar (Plant Biology and Pathology) is the Rutgers researcher who concentrates on the improvement and study of hazelnut and is involved in the work of the consortium. The U.S. currently produces only about five percent of the world's hazelnuts -- and almost all of that comes from Oregon, an area of the U.S. with a climate ideal for tree growth. But a consortium of the Arbor Day Foundation and three universities -- the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Oregon State University and Rutgers University -- thinks the U.S. can do better.
