With oil prices high, electricity consumption on the increase and pressure building to develop cleaner forms of energy, producing electricity from bagasse is an increasingly lucrative prospect for sugar mills looking for a third revenue stream. As the world's largest sugar producer, Brazil is ideally placed to take advantage of this technology.
F.O. Licht and IBC Brasil's first Cogeneration Brazil conference will examine how you can capitalise on the opportunities, optimise technology and generate finance, giving you a unique insight into how you can profit from this clean technology.
Securing finance for cogeneration projects is a critical issue in embracing this technology and our panel of expert speakers, including representatives from Rabobank, BNDES and the International Finance Corporation (IFC), give their views on the potential for cogeneration and how to gain funding to invest in cogeneration projects.
Our speakers assess the outlook for Brazilian electricity demand and prices and analyse how cogeneration fits into the Brazilian energy matrix. Carlos Silvestrin, Executive Director of CogenSP, will share his perspective on the long-term prospects for cogeneration projects.
Marcos Sawaya Jank, President of the Sugar Producers Union, UNICA, will analyse trends in Brazilian sugar output and what this could mean for the capacity to generate electricity from bagasse. You will also hear case studies from India and Argentina demonstrating how cogeneration projects have functioned in these countries.
Register today to take this opportunity to network with senior figures from the leading international companies in this market. Bringing together delegates from food, energy, finance and government, Cogeneration Brazil provides the perfect forum for you to analyse this highly topical subject and capitalise on future opportunities.
