The Bioenergy Site reports that São Paulo is the first city in Brazil to have an ethanol-fueled bus fleet. The project is a deal is between the city of São Paulo, Unica (a sugar cane industry body), Scania, ethanol supplier Cosan and the public transport group, Viação Metropolitana. A fleet of 50 buses, which were acquired by Metropolitana, were manufactured by Scania, and adapted from a research of the University of São Paulo (USP). Ethanol supplier, Cosan, estimates that the 50-bus fleet would consume about 300,000 liters of (95% blend of) ethanol per month. The project showcases Brazil efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through the use of biofuels.
