In the Northern region, without data collection until the 7th, and without data collection from January 9 to 14, Acre and Amapá are not part of the mapping carried out by the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP), and the data compilation was carried out by AE-Taxas. The price of this fuel influences the price of gasoline, which contains 27% ethanol in its composition.

Highlighting the states of Rio Grande do Sul and Ceará, where there were no price changes. In the former, the prices per liter are around R$ 4.76, and in the latter, around R$ 4.57. The main state in production and consumption, with the most distribution points, São Paulo, from January 9 to 14, saw the price drop from R$ 3.94 per liter to R$ 3.85, a percentage decrease of 2.28%. The federal unit that registered the largest percentage drop was Goiás, 5.05%, where in the first week of the year, the price per liter was R$ 3.96, and in the second, it was R$ 3.76.

The parity calculated stands at 78.17% for gasoline, during the survey period from January 2 to 14, 2023. This is a level considered unfavorable in a scenario comparing both fuels. According to experts, depending on the vehicle in which the biofuel is injected, ethanol only becomes competitive compared to gasoline if the fuel parity is higher than 70%.
