SAO PAULO -(Dow Jones)- Brazil's state-run oil company Petroleo Brasileiro S/A (PBR, PETR4.BR), or Petrobras, will officially open the country's first ethanol-fueled power-generating unit Tuesday, the company said in a statement.
The company has adapted one 45-megawatt turbine at its Juiz de Fora power plant to be used with ethanol or gas.
Brazil is the world's largest ethanol producer, which it derives from sugarcane.
