Brazil\u2019s sugar-energy industry is stepping up its international outreach to gain a larger role in the global energy transition. On May 14, the Brazilian Sugarcane and Bioenergy Industry Association (UNICA) will participate in the traditional NY Sugar Dinner in New York, where it will promote Brazilian ethanol as one of the fastest and most effective solutions for decarbonizing land and maritime transport.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cEthanol has proven to be highly efficient, significantly reducing carbon emissions compared to fossil fuels,\u201d said UNICA president, Evandro Gussi. Ethanol can cut carbon emissions by up to 90% relative to gasoline.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

At a recent event in Paris, industry leaders discussed strategies to increase the global biofuel supply fourfold by 2035. In this scenario, Brazil is seen as having the greatest expansion potential through the conversion of degraded pastures into sugarcane fields, gains in crop productivity, and greater use of corn for ethanol production. \u201cThere are also significant investments in biomethane, which will further expand the sector\u2019s energy offering,\u201d Mr. Gussi said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Brazil is the world\u2019s largest sugarcane producer, with 621.88 million tonnes harvested in the 2024\/25 crop year, and the second-largest ethanol producer, having posted a record output of 34.96 billion liters in the last season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

On the demand side, maritime transportation is expected to drive higher ethanol consumption. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has set targets to cut net emissions from international shipping by 20% by 2030 and reach net-zero emissions by 2050. Companies like Compagnie Maritime Mon\u00e9gasque and W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 are developing ethanol-powered vessels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Japan is also expected to boost demand. The country plans to blend 10% ethanol into gasoline by 2030 and 20% by 2040, increasing annual consumption from 1.5 billion liters to 4.45 billion liters. In March, UNICA and the Institute of Energy Economics, Japan (IEEJ) signed an agreement to enhance technical collaboration on sustainable biofuels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

According to Mr. Gussi, initiatives such as Brazil\u2019s Green Mobility and Fuel of the Future programs have strengthened the image of Brazilian ethanol as a sustainable alternative.<\/p>\n
