3. Sugarcane bagasse for energy
co-generation
Technology in use
Conventional (cogeneration only during harvest)
USD $ 500 to 600 per installed kW
Generation of 40 kW/ hour per ton of cane
Technology in development
Condensation/extraction (co-generation the entire year)
US$ 600-800/kW installed
150 kWhour/t of cane
(BIG-GT – Biomass Integrated Gasifier/Gas Turbine)
US$ 2500/kW installed
517kWhour/ton of cane

3.1 . Co-generation of energy
Each ton of cane produces 140 kg of dry
bagasse mass, 90% of which is used to produce
energy at the mill.
Between 1980 and 2000, alcohol and sugar mills
in Brazil evolved from a dependency on 40% 50% purchased electrical energy to self-reliance.
Self-reliance, with a balance between bagasse
availability and production energy needs and
also an excess of up to 10kWh/t of cane.

3.1. Co-generation of energy (cont)
Potential of 4.000 - 5.000 MW for 350 million
tons (Mt) of cane per year.
Itaipu – 18 turbines – individual capacity of 715 MW
Recent situation
184 self-reliant producers of the alcohol and sugar
sector
In 2003, installed capacity of 1.582 MW, about 10% of
the Brazilian thermoelectric capacity
In 2002, trade of an excess of 5.360 GWh (1,6% of the
consumption of electricity in Brazil)

4.2. Car Technology using Biofuels
Chronology:
1975: Brazilian energy matrix diversification with
alcohol for transports
1988: Flex technology patented in Brazil
2003: Flex Fuel vehicle in Brazil
Alcohol + Flex-Fuel vehicle participation in total
sales:
2003: 7.0%
2004: 26.0%
2005: 46.6% (through July)

5.1. Comparative Green House Gases
emissions reduction (CO2)
Produced renewable energy/ consumed fossil
energy relation (ratio kcal/ton of cane)
1,4 corn ethanol in US;
1,9 beet ethanol in Europe;
8,3 cane ethanol in Brazil.
Avoided emissions
2,6 - 2,7 t CO2 eq./m3 of anhydrous ethanol (added to
gasoline);
1,7 -1,9 t CO2eq./m3 of hydrated ethanol (pure use);
Production of 14 million m3 per year, 50:50 anhydrous
and hydrated, reduction of 30,1 million tCO2e.
