Therefore, it was aimed todetermine the bioethanol production cost items and unit production costs andalso to put forth the effects of variations in raw material prices on cost ofbioethanol.. The research data were collected via personal interviews fromactive bioethanol plants in Turkey. The results of previous studies anddocuments of related institutions and organizations were also used. The studyfollowed classical cost analysis approach to calculate production cost.Scenario analysis was performed when exploring the effect of raw materialprices on bioethanol production cost. Research findings showed that productioncost per litre bioethanol produced from sugar beet molasses, corn, wheat andcorn-wheat mixture were 2.50 TL, 2.84 TL, 2.95 and 2.84 TL, respectively. Theshare of raw material expenses in bioethanol cost per liter varied associatedwith the crops used in the process, it was 28.55% for bioethanol produced fromsugar beet molasses, 44.81% for bioethanol produced from corn-wheat mixture and44.87% bioethanol produced from corn.The research results also showed that the changes that occur in rawmaterial prices significantly affected the bioethanol production cost andopportunity cost of crops created difficulties in biomass supply. Implementingthe suitable policies and strategies and making the necessary arrangements inlegislation would enhance the economic sustainability of bioethanol productionin Turkey CR - Adıgüzel, A.O., 2013.
