| Project Name | Ampol – Brisbane Renewable Fuels Pre-FEED Study |
| Project Detail | Ampol will conduct a pre-front end engineering design (Pre-FEED) study for the construction of a renewable fuels facility at the Lytton Refinery in Queensland that will have a minimum capacity of 450 ML per year, known as the Brisbane Renewable Fuels Project. The hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids (HEFA) production pathway is the most advanced for sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) production with approximately 40 plants operating globally. The CSIRO SAF Roadmap considers the HEFA production pathway to be positively supported due to the use of energy dense intermediates and social acceptance (associated with the use of sustainable feedstocks low in carbon intensity). The CSIRO SAF Roadmap also considers the HEFA production pathway will be the first to produce SAF in Australia compared to alternative pathways. The BRF Project will significantly enhance renewable fuel supply, making it a crucial benchmark for projecting future demand and pricing trends in the Australian SAF market. ARENA funding will support Pre-FEED study as a critical phase in overall project execution. |
