SCENARIOS FOR ORGANIZATION OF BIOFUELS PRODUCTION BY AGRICULTURAL ENTERPRISES OF UKRAINE

The importance of using the bioenergy potential of agricultural enterprises for the production of biofuels while preventing food shortages and increasing its cost is substantiated. Scenarios for managing bioenergy potential are developed using the example of a small agricultural enterprise: an optimistic scenario (own production of biofuels, in particular pellets, biodiesel and biogas), a realistic one (participation in bioenergy cooperatives, sale of bioenergy crops to biofuel producers on a contractual basis) and a pessimistic one – sale of bioenergy crops exclusively on the food market. In order to assess the probability of the first scenario, the potential for own production of briquettes, biodiesel and biogas is calculated. For own production of briquettes, the obstacle is the high cost of the technological line, for biodiesel production – the high demand for sunflower as a food crop; for biogas – limited resource potential and high cost of equipment. It is substantiated that the probability of the first scenario is low. When assessing the realistic scenario, options for different types of bioenergy cooperatives, of which the studied enterprise may become a member, were considered. It was determined that a solid biofuel production cooperative is the optimal option that will provide the cooperative members with energy resources of its own production at low cost. Within the framework of the second scenario, stages of interaction between the studied enterprise and the biofuel production enterprise as a supplier of raw materials were developed, which creates an opportunity for sustainable development of the both parties. The probability of the realistic scenario is medium. The pessimistic scenario will predict that the bioenergy potential of the agricultural enterprise will remain unused. Unfortunately, its probability is quite high given the low awareness of enterprise managers about the advantages of organizing biofuel production and the complexity of organizing such production from the economic, financial and technical side.
