In the present study, are presented preliminaries results of the project "Use of the fruit of the cupuaçuzeiro for generation of energy." The elementary and thermal analyses are carried out for the cupuaçu peel and for the coal obtained starting from the carbonization of that peel. The initial results come quite favorable for the use of the peel and of the coal as energy input in thermo conversion process where the generation of electric energy is sought.

Keywords : Cupuaçu; energia; resíduo de biomassa.
