ETHANOL AND CLIMATE CHANGE
European Directive 2009/28/CE: promotes the use of energy from
renewable sources.
o Establishes a 10% target until 2020 for the transport sector.
o Establishes that ethanol from sugarcane reduces 71% of greenhouse
gases emissions when compared to gasoline.
US Environmental Protection Agency – EPA 2010/February 2010
o The American Agency has designated sugarcane ethanol an advanced
biofuel status, as it lowers GHG emissions up to 61%.
By Adding 10% of ethanol to the gasoline
Reduces up to 7% of GHG emissions
