PCF Sugar Bagasse Cogeneration Project

closed

The objective of the Prototype Carbon Fund - PCF - Sugar Bagasse Cogeneratioon Project is to reduce emissions by generating energy from renewable resources. It is designed to facilitate the implementation of several subprojects in Brazil, of which two sugar bagasse cogeneration projects are presented for approval. The Alta Mogiana Bagasse Cogeneration Project is hosted by Usina Alta Mogiana S.A., and focuses on increasing efficiency in the cogeneration process to produce more steam, and increase electricity output to supply the national grid. In the first phase, two 21 bar pressure boilers are refurbished and a new 25 MW turbo generator installed. The Guarani Cruz Alta Bagasse Cogeneration project is hosted by Azucar Guarani S.A. and focuses on installing new facilities to increase the electricity output from its generation plant. Under Phase I, a 21.8 MW backpressure turbo-generator will be installed and a 63 bar boiler. In Phase II a 25 MW pressure turbo-generator will be installed, as well as a 63 Bar boiler. The project will receive carbon finance, and project preparation and processing from the Prototype Carbon Fund (PCF).
