Congratulations to our sustainable aviation fuel partners, GrainCorp and Ampol who have been announced as the recipients of a combined $14.1 million in Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) funding to support studies into renewable fuels alternatives. This announcement highlights the opportunity to support the decarbonisation of air travel and build a new local industry. We're proud to be partnering with GrainCorp and Ampol to explore the establishment of an integrated renewable fuels industry in Australia. #IFMInvestors #RenewableFuels #Aviation
$14.1 million will go towards two innovative projects helping sustainable aviation fuels take flight. ARENA is providing funding to Ampol and GrainCorp for separate studies to develop renewable fuel alternatives for Australia’s airline industry: - $8m to Ampol for the ‘Brisbane Renewable Fuels Pre-FEED Study’ - $6.1m to GrainCorp for the ‘SAF Oilseed Crushing Facility Pre-Deployment Study’ Domestic aviation accounts for approximately 2% of Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions. These projects represent an important step in addressing the challenges to decarbonise this high emissions industry.
