Description:	The worldwide demand for renewahle energy creates a great opportunity for Brazil 's development. The country has unmatched natural comparalive advantages (soil, climate, available area), technology and expertise to partially supply that demando Exploitation of feedstock suitable for biomass produclion and ils conversion lo energy, requires a model considering the aptitude and potential of each terrestrial biome (Amazônia, Cerrado, Caatinga, Mata Atlântica, Pantanal and Pampa) addressing: regional production and use of renewable energy with adequate balance; job and income generation in rural and urban areas; socio-economic insertion and reduction of regional differences; reduction qf greenhouse 80s emission and attention lo environmental services. To face Ihat challenge Embrapa has recently constituted the Embrapa Agroenergy to coordinate and develop research and innovation, focusing suslainable biomass production and its conversion to energy, the economical use and recycling of resudues and co-products.
