I'm really excited by the opportunity for Australia to be a super-scale clean liquid fuels producer. 45% of Australia's energy comes from liquid fuels - mostly carbon-intensive petroleum products. And 90% of it is imported. What we're talking about here is standing up an industry that produces clean aviation fuel in Australia. This can help aviation here decarbonise faster and more than any other pathway in the next few decades. It can create tens of thousands of jobs, for people in rural and regional Australia - some of whom are already being displaced by the energy transition, so why don't we seize the opportunity to give them a new pathway? And we can protect Australia's sovereign interests and national security by reducing our dependence on imports. It can start with our farmers, which is why I've enjoyed speaking to them and sharing the opportunity, just like the one we see, with our partners at Qantas, by investing in Jet Zero Australia .. and more to come. Now, we need the right policy levers from Government. Their announcements of support are welcome, and we're helping them to shape the details, because what we do in the next 12-18 months makes the difference. Are we ready to be a liquid fuels super-power? Our farmers can be the first key to a clean energy future for transport.

Exploring the Future of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) 🚀 As SAF becomes a cornerstone of global decarbonization strategies, key regions are leveraging waste-to-fuel, biomass conversion, and power-to-liquid pathways, supported by strong incentives and significant projects: EU: 6% SAF mandate by 2030, scaling to 63% by 2050. Projects include #TotalEnergies’ SAF expansion and #Neste’s Rotterdam plant, with the EU driving growth through the #ReFuelEU Aviation initiative and extensive funding via Horizon Europe. Partnerships across the entire value chain—feedstock suppliers, refiners, and airlines—are key to success. UK: £180M in funding, 10% SAF target by 2030. Large projects such as #LighthouseGreeFuels are leading the charge in converting Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) into SAF, aligning with the UK’s Jet Zero Strategy. Strong partnerships with government bodies, technology providers, and airlines (e.g., #BritishAirways and #Velocys) are driving innovation and scalability. USA: The Inflation Reduction Act offers tax credits up to $1.75/gallon, aiming for 3 billion gallons of SAF by 2030. Leading projects include World Energy’s SAF refinery expansion and United Airlines’ long-term SAF procurement agreements. In the U.S., partnerships between federal agencies, private industry, and feedstock suppliers are crucial to rapidly scaling SAF production. Key Challenges: High Production Costs: SAF remains more expensive than traditional jet fuel due to scaling challenges. But cost reduction it is expected - Feedstock Availability: Securing sufficient and sustainable feedstock, like MSW and biomass, is a bottleneck. - Regulatory Complexity: Varying regional policies and certifications add layers of complexity for global expansion. - Infrastructure: Scaling up SAF production will require substantial investment in new infrastructure. The Path Forward: The key to unlocking the full potential of SAF lies in partnerships across the entire value chain—from feedstock suppliers to refiners, to airlines and policymakers. Collaboration at every stage will be essential to overcome challenges and achieve the global decarbonization targets in aviation. #SAF #Sustainability #Aviation #NetZero #WasteToValue

Danish short sea operator Unifeeder has confirmed a long-term charter agreement for two additional methanol-powered containerships, following a deal signed in October 2023 for two initial methanol-capable vessels. The latest agreement is in partnership with German-based shipowner Elbdeich Reederei and Norwegian shipowner MPC Container Ships (MPCC), who are responsible for one vessel each. The 1,250 TEU vessels, scheduled for delivery in 2026, will be deployed on Unifeeder’s European network. The agreement for the first two feeders was signed in October last year. In parallel with the delivery of the methanol-capable vessels, Unifeeder plans to improve the fuel efficiency of the entire fleet deployed and increase the use of biofuels on the conventional vessels in the fleet. “Building upon our commitment to methanol-powered vessels last year, this marks another significant stride towards the green transformation of our fleet and operations. We anticipate the vessels to enter into operation in the next two years, advancing our steadfast commitment to sustainable solutions. We offer our customers alternatives that align with their sustainability journeys while making meaningful progress towards our own ambitious decarbonisation goals,” Jesper Kristensen, Group CEO of Unifeeder Group, said. Unifeeder has committed to a 25 per cent reduction of emissions by 2030 and to reach net-zero by 2050 with no new fossil greenhouse gas emissions. The firm aims to achieve this by emphasizing fuel-efficient practices, and regular maintenance and refitting processes of the existing fleet. Unifeeder Group is part of DP World Marine Services, which announced in December 2023 that the group had reduced its carbon footprint by more than 16% in 2023 from its 2019 baseline of 2,118 ktCO2e by creating efficiencies across its operations. DP World also joined the First Movers Coalition, setting a target for 5% of its marine power to come from zero-emissions fuels by 2030, marking its commitment to decarbonization. 🔹 Source: https://lnkd.in/eCrGQV4g

Following the last working group meeting among International Maritime Organization members, the GHG fuel standard is set to be a key driver for the industry to meet its net-zero target ‘by or around 2050.’ The GHG fuel standard is part of IMO’s “basket of measures” to gradually reduce the allowable wake-to-well CO₂e intensity of marine fuels and these measures are to be adopted in 2025, with an envisaged entry into force in 2027. Achieving IMO GHG reduction strategy will require a combination of scaling adoption of current and new energy efficiency technologies and adoption of low-carbon fuels including ammonia, methanol, hydrogen and next generation biofuels. The strategy also highlights the need for the transition to be just and equitable, to ensure no stakeholder is left behind. 🗣️ Speaking to GovInsider, Dr Sanjay C Kuttan, shares what GCMD is doing to prepare the shipping industry for the changes.

Finnish ro/pax operator Viking Line began offering passengers the opportunity to pay for bio-LNG on its voyages last year, allowing them to contribute to the purchase of cleaner fuels to cover individual journeys. According to The Maritime Executive, this adds a manageable fee of up to €5 in addition to the fare, which ranges between €45-55 and can reduce the passenger carbon footprint by up to 90%. Bio-LNG’s emissions credentials make it a compelling fuel solution. Typically, bio-LNG (liquefied bio-methane) can reduce GHG emissions by up to 80% compared to marine diesel on a full well-to-wake basis. If avoided emissions are taken into account, when it is produced from anaerobic digestion of manure, bio-LNG can achieve net-negative emissions of up to -190% compared with heavy fuel oil. Bio-LNG can be used as a drop-in fuel in all current and future LNG-fuelled engines with minimal, if any, modification. Bio-LNG can be transported, stored and bunkered in ports using the established infrastructure. As a result, LNG currently offers the most efficient, lowest risk, known-cost pathway to a zero-emissions future for the maritime sector.
