11 Biofuels Brazil and Biofuels Brazil is still a diesel oil importer Brazil plays an outstanding role on the world biofuels stage (fuel alcohol) Vast territory with weather and soil conditions favoring the production of biomass Much of Brazil is suitable for growing oil seeds and sugar cane Global demands for biofuels are rising Alcohol production is firmly established, while biodiesel production is rated as strategic for Brazil
12 Alcohol
13 Alcohol - Brazil Proálcool Brazilian Alcohol Programme In 1975 Brazil started an extensive ethanol production programme largely supported by Petrobras. The company also developed and installed an ethanol producing plant from cassava (Curvelo, MG) Ethanol Program Implanted (BLENDS) Fuel Ethanol Program Evolution Gasohol and Ethanol Cars (2 nd oil shock) Program of Emission Controls (PROCONVE) Gasohol and Flex fuel Cars Program for oil imports reduction Environmental Benefits 70 s 80 S 90 S 00 S Future

15 Alcohol - Brazil World largest ethanol producer and technological leader. Annual turnover: US$ 12 billion (circa industries). Exports: US$ 2.5 billion/year (sugar and ethanol). Total area of plantations: 5 million hectares. Sugar cane production: 340 million tons/year. Installed capacity for ethanol production: 16 million m³/year. Ethanol production: 14 million m³/year (2004). Ethanol present potential surplus (for export) : 2 million m³/y can be easily expanded. 308 Sugar Mills and Distilleries: 218 locatedat Center-Southern.
16 Alcohol - Brazil Competitive advantages of Brazil High standard agro-industrial technological level. All input and equipment produced in in Brasil. World lowest cost Available extra area for agriculture. Very favorable climate conditions. Brasil: US$ 0,18/liter USA: US$ 0,33/liter Europe: US$ 0,56/liter

20 Ethanol trading Brazil-Japan Ethanol Inc. Recently, Petrobras incorporated Brazil-Japan Ethanol Inc. The company will import and distribute Brazilianproduced ethanol in Japan; Development of technical and commercial solutions for the reliable and long term supply of alcohol in the Japanese market; Petrobras will break into one of the most complex and important energy markets in the World: ethanol logistics distribution fuel distribution sector in Japan. Others Exploiting opportunities for sales and technology transfer in Ecuador, Venezuela, Cuba and Nigeria.
