Technical FAQs 4

What is Sucre (sugarcane renewable electricity)?

LNBR led SUCRE (Sugarcane Renewable Electricity), a five-year project funded by the Global Environment Facility through the United Nations Development Programme to increase the supply of low-GHG electricity through the generation of bioelectricity from straw. SUCRE is a legacy from 2015 to 2020.

Is sugarcane a renewable resource?

A renewable resource is one that can be used over and over. It’s one that doesn’t run out as it is naturally replaced. Classic examples include solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass energy. Due to this definition, yes sugarcane is a renewable source of energy.

Is sugarcane a good energy crop?

Sugarcane is one of the most important/most promising energy crops due to its high primary energy per cultivated area (approximately 600 GJ/ha), but the straw is still underused for electricity generation by the plants.

How does sugarcane produce energy?

Around 75% of the entire plant is made up of it’s stem. Like other plants, sugarcane creates its own energy via photosynthesis. This is the process by which plants convert light energy into usable chemical energy. Once converted, this energy can be used by the plant to undertake its day to day activities.
