estimativas y metas de 2012 y 2017. RFS
Renewables Fuel Standards. Importaciones de los
EEUU asumidos como siendo 7 del consumo. Meta
del Presidente Bush es de 132 billones de litros
de combustibles renovables y alternativos en
2017. Proyecciones presentadas por Bruce
Babcock en seminario de WWC (Feb2007). Cálculo
en base a proyecciones de consumo de maíz para

Opportunities
  • New bioenergy businesses (IDB cooperation US 675
    k US 250 k)
  • Support Agroenergy policy
  • Support the Guyana Agroenergy Board
  • Screening and Evaluation Unit
  • Support for capacity building and training
  • Matching fund mechanism (up to US 50,000) to
    promote bioenergy
  • Cogeneration in Guyana could replace 40-50 of
    installed capacity
  • Savings in diesel and fuel oil imports
  • Ethanol for E10 (ECLAC study) and eventually
    export
  • Savings in gasoline imports

11
Opportunities (Cont.) What could the CREBAP
program do?
12
Threats
  • Business as usual (inefficiency in the
    agriculture process and production chain)
  • Deforestation
  • Competition with other crops (food)
  • Social issues
