Abstract The State of Paraná stands out in Brazil for its hydraulic potential for electricity generation. Furthermore, the State also shows potential for the use of other sources of energy, such as solar energy, biogas and biomass. The study traces the profile of electric energy consumption and compiles analysis of the alternative energy potentials of Paraná on the use of solar energy, the biomass of forest residues and agricultural crops, the generation of biogas through the residues of farmed animals and the urban solids residues. The work took account for the estimates, the logistical limitations for the biomass or biogas collection and the real availability of the wastes in terms of viability of exploration through distributed generation plants. The use of the business analytics software Tableau Desktop 2020.3.2® made possible the open data analysis at the municipal level. The paper provides realistic estimates about the feasibility of the use of alternative energy sources in the State of Paraná.

Linhagens de elite e cultivares de amendoim rasteiro foram avaliadas quanto às suas produtividades de grãos e de óleo, visando uma posterior indicação ao mercado de óleo comestível ou combustível. Os genótipos foram cultivados no período das águas, durante dois anos, em Barbalha, CE, sob o delineamento experimental de blocos ao acaso, com cinco repetições. A colheita foi efetuada entre 110 e 135 dias após o plantio. As variáveis analisadas foram produtividade em vagens, sementes e óleo. O óleo bruto foi extraído aplicando-se a tecnologia convencional de soxhlet, utilizando-se éter de petróleo como solvente. Posteriormente, procedeu-se às análises dos ácidos graxos por meio de cromatografia gasosa. Baseando-se nos ensaios de produção, os materiais de maior produção de grãos foram LViPE-06 e BRS Pérola Branca, com médias de 3,04 t ha-1 de vagens e 2,13 t ha-1 de sementes. Esses materiais também se destacaram para o segmento oleoquímico, baseando-se no teor de óleo e na relação de ácidos graxos O/L, que se situaram em 51% e 1,9, respectivamente.

Top lines and cultivars of runner peanut genotypes were analyzed as to grain and oil yield, aiming further recommendation to edible or combustible oil market. The genotypes were cultivated during wet seasons for two years, at the city of Barbalha, state of Ceará, Brazil, by using a complete randomized block design with five replicates. The harvest took place from 110 to 135 days after planting. Pod, grain and oil yields were registered in each plot. Crude oil was extracted by soxhlet protocol, by using petroleum ether as a solvent. Afterwards, fatty acids were analyzed by gas chromatography. Based on yield tests, LViPE-06 and BRS Pérola Branca showed the highest grain yields, with pod and seed yield averages of 3.04 kg ha-1 and 2.13 kg ha-1, respectively. These genotypes also stood out as to oil chemistry industry, based on oil content and ratio of oleic/ linoleic fatty acids, which were 51 and 1.9, respectively.
