Bioenergy in general, and biofuels in particular, have come up to the renewable energy stage with some peculiar strength, overall in terms of alternatives for transportation. Some of the drivers behind this option are shared on a global scale, such as the reduction of GHG’s emissions, and enhancement of energy security conditions. Some others have a more local nature, like a diversification of markets for agricultural commodities, dynamization of rural areas, improvement of micro and macro-economic indicators (for instance, income of the rural poor and national balance of payment), among others.
