1 BIOEN Workshop on the Impact of Land Use Change and Biofuel Crops on Soils and the Environment PROSPECTS FOR THE SUGARCANE BIOENERGY SECTOR Marcos S. Jank President, Brazilian Sugarcane Industry Association São Paulo June 16, 2009
2 ABOUT UNICA UNICA is the leading sugarcane industry association, representing 127 mills in Brazil Responsible for 60% of all ethanol and sugar production in Brazil Emerging as a leader in the generation of bioelectricity already meeting 3% of Brazil s electricity demand International presence, now in Washington & Brussels, to engage in constructive dialogue
3 OUTLINE I. Brazilian sugarcane sector: an overview The Brazilian ethanol evolution: building blocks of energy security. The increasing FFV fleet. II. Sugarcane s next frontiers Bioelectricity. Other uses for ethanol. III. Current issues regarding the sustainability of the sugarcane sector. IV. Proposed research agenda.

16 BIOELECTRICITY: POTENTIAL IN BRAZIL 2It Itaipus Notes: 1 ton of sugarcane produces 250 kg of bagasse and 204 kg of straw, 1 ton of sugarcane (bagasse + straw) generates 199,9 KWh for exporting; the straw inferior calorific value = 1,7 bagasse inferior calorific value; capacity factor = 0,5 (Koblitz). It is assumed that 75% of the bagasse is used for cogeneration. The percentage of straw use starts at 5% (2008) going up to 70% (2015). Until 2010 the potential market prediction consider the regulated energy auctioning; for 2011 an increase of 1600 MW is assumed, for subsequent years a 2000 MW increase per year is assumed.

17 BENEFITS OF BIOELECTRICITY Experience and know how Units are self-sufficient in energy Reduced construction period Construction in months Renewable and clean energy Low environmental impact Provide carbon credits Synergy with hydro production pattern Bioelectricity is produced during the dry season í Smaller projects and broader range of investors Eliminate risks of delay and construction problems Strengthen the national equipment industry and create jobs Location close to main load centers Source: PSR, Cogen, UNICA, Elaboration: UNICA,

26 EU DIRECTIVE ON RENEWABLE ENERGIES The Directive establishes the adoption of a 10% mandatory target by 2020 for renewables in the transport sector. The majority of this 10% is expected to be fulfilled by biofuels and this could represent a market for ethanol up to 14 billion liters. The mandatory 10% target includes sustainability criteria: Requirements for greenhouse gas emissions savings compared to fossil fuels: from 35% when the Directive enters into force in 2010, to 50% by 2017 and 60% for new projects launched as of Establishment of areas of high biodiversity and carbon stock as no go areas - where the production of biofuels is prohibitive. Forests, wetlands and pastures with high h biodiversity it (still under discussion the correct definition of these geographical areas).

28 CANASAT PROJECT Provides credible, useful information regarding the spatial distribution ib ti of cultivated t sugarcane area in South-Central region, using remote sensing satellite images Examines evidences on the relationship between agricultural land-use changes, soil productivity and indicators of environmental sensitivity Several inquiries can be performed about sugarcane location, amount of cultivated area and sugarcane crop evolution over the past years at both municipality and State levels Initiative of INPE, UNICA and CTC
29 SUGARCANE AGRO-ENVIRONMENTAL ZONING IN SÃO PAULO STATE São Paulo State, where 60% of sugarcane is grown, has performed and adopted an agro-environmental zoning that induces sugarcane expansion in the most appropriate areas and prohibit new planting in sensitive areas

33 SUGGESTIONS FOR RESEARCH AGENDA 1. Proliferation of low impact projects must be avoided. Focus on multidisciplinary initiatives to concentrate and maximize research s results: Coordination and information exchanges are extremely important to avoid duplication of work. From laboratory experiments to commercial scale testing needs an expressive amount of resources. 2. Research structure cannot be exclusively based on public institutions, it cannot rely only on the private sector either. A new cooperation model is needed (for research and funding) 3. We should (A) map all of the current initiatives (what is the situation today), (B) define 3 or 4 main objectives and (C) define each actors role. There must be a common agenda, involving private sector, government and universities/research institutes. 4. To expand cooperation under the MoU US-Brazil on biofuels.
