Maize is one of the most important naturally renewable sources of carbohydrate raw materials, energy and series of diverse products. Maize can provide both starch (seed) and cellulosic (stover) material for bioethanol production. The aim of this paper is study of the utility of ZP maize hybrids as raw material for bioethanol production. Obtained results show that maize hybrids differ in ethanol yield production. The highest ethanol yield, expressed in% of the theoretical yield, after 34 hours of fermetation was obtained with ZP 434, 90.2% and the lowest one with ZP544, 69.32%.
