Elephant Grass to electrical power

Elephant grass is to be used to generate electrical power in Bahia at a plant built by a company called Dendi, in Sao Paulo state, Brazil. according to the Temas blog.
There is something clear and obvious about what you are doing if you grow a crop to burn it and generate electricity. I would be interested if anyone has figures on the efficiency of the different ways of producing biofuels to deliver 1kW power at a distance of 50km from the site of generation.
