Cogeneration potential

Plants can generate 80 kWh/sugarcane ton in excess (low
pressure systems)

Investment can be recovered in 3 to 4 years

Cogeneration can have an important impact on income of
ethanol producers (25-28%)

Sugarcane bagasse, stem tips and leaves can provide
great amount of energy

Perspectives for ethanol in developing countries
BIODIESEL
Brazil has 90 million
hectares available
for producing oil
crops.
Law nº 11.097 / 2005
- Introduces biodiesel into the Brazilian energy
matrix
- 2% has to be added to diesel in 3 years
(by January 2008) - 800 million liters
- 5% has to be added in 8 years (by January
2013) - 2 billion liters
- Oil and gas royalties can be used to finance
biofuels R&D projects
Law 11.116 / 2005
- Special monophase regime for federal taxation (PIS/PASEP
and COFINS)
- Biodiesel producers has to be authorized by ANP (National
Agency for Oil, Gas and Biofuels)
- Special record at Secretaria da Receita Federal (Ministry of
Finances)
Decree nº 5.297
- Defines the value of PIS/PASEP and COFINS
- Creates the “Social Fuel Stamp”
Source: Gomide, R. B. - 2006
Social Fuel Stamp – IN 01 / 2005
Ministério do Desenvolvimento Agrário - MDA
Requirement for concession:
• Buying of raw material of family farming
• 50% NE
• 10% North and CW
• 30% SE and South
• Formal contracting
• Technical assistance and training
Resolution nº 3 / 2005
Conselho Nacional de Política Energética - CNPE
- Public auctions to anticipate the 2% goal. Raw material from family farming and
“Social Fuel Stamp”
Portaria nº 483 / 2005

- Guidelines for public auctions to be executed by Oil, Gas and Biofuel National

CONCLUSION
- Brazil has a great potential for biofuel production but a small
potential to promote citizenship
- Biofuels legal framework is confusing and inconsistent
- Ethanol and biodiesel are subject to different public policies
- Ethanol can be treated as “social fuel” like biodiesel
- The Brazilian legislation does not define any incentive for
cooperativism and small distilleries or production units
- Family farming depends on industrial producers

addendum by James Page



“There is a required trade-off between energy and
food production. With half of the world hungry, this
is not a good idea at all.”
The “green revolution” began in the ’70s. It’s taken
30 years to take off.
Q: “What’s the better alternative? Nuclear? With
all the risks? Or do we continue to flatten pristine
environments of the Amazon?”

A: “We need technology to change this and increase
yields and product in traditional areas where markets
function better.”
Cont’d


Improvements in this technology will lead to
300,000 of Brazil’s poorest losing their jobs
by 2014.
“There is no way for Brazil to use renewable
energy…costs are way too high.”

“The Amazon is the world’s
air conditioning system.”
“The free market will lead us to the
end.”
“The world is watching the United States
and waiting for a change on their position
on the omission of the gases with regard
to global warming…
…of course, I’m not a defender of Mr.
Bush, but the United States has great
technological capability and we are going
to need this.”
