This study intends to analyse the potential of vegetable oils for electricity generation in isolated communities of Amazon Region. The case study with Vila Campinas, municipal district of Manacapuru/AM, shows the necessity of a relative small area to extract buriti's oil in communities of low energy demand. Besides it provides technological and economic development and CO₂ emission reduction.
