According to the survey by ANP compiled by AE-Taxas, ethanol remained more competitive than gasoline in four States last Saturday: Goiás, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, and São Paulo.
In parallel, it is considered that ethanol from sugarcane or corn, due to its lower calorific power, has a price limit of 70% of the petroleum derivative at fuel stations to be considered advantageous.
In Goiás, the parity is 65.74%; in Mato Grosso, 66.22%; in Minas Gerais, 67.05%; and in São Paulo, 66.72%.
Generally, in the stations surveyed across the country, ethanol is at parity of 67.89% against gasoline, thus more favorable than the petroleum derivative.
Industry executives claim that ethanol can be competitive with a parity greater than 70% depending on the vehicle in which the biocombustible is used.
