RENOVABIO - IMPACTS ON THE MACRO AND MICRO ENVIRONMENTS OF BRAZILIAN BIOFUELS
A National Biofuels Policy that offers predictability and economic sustainability; with environmental and social effects; committing to a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions; and, mainly, free of burdens and taxes, both for the producer and for the distributor and all the stakeholders involved. In this sense, in 2017 the decarbonization program, named RenovaBio, was launched. It focuses on increasing the consumption of biofuels and their expansion in the Brazilian energy matrix. The term biofuel is used for any fuel derived from biomass (sugarcane, soy, among others) and, together with renewable technologies, become fundamental with regard to the future of the planet. In this context, Brazil is highly competitive and prosperous in the production of biofuels, due to its abundance and diversity of raw materials. It should be noted that, in Brazil, the production of ethanol from sugarcane is an example of an economically viable activity. The objective of this research is to investigate the impacts that the RenovaBio Program will provide to Brazil as a National Biofuel Policy in the macro and micro environments of the biofuel sector. For this discussion, a survey will be carried out in the literature and documents related to the biofuel sector. With this, it is expected to increase understanding about the economic development of the biofuels sector and the impact that carbon credits can have in the social and economic scope.
