Australia’s national biofuel strategy – future for heavy vehicles

Peak bodies have welcomed the landmark step taken to begin locally producing low-carbon liquid fuels for Australia’s heavy vehicle industry. 

The federal government has taken another step towards locally producing low-carbon liquid fuels for Australian trucks and vehicles, opening submissions for its first National Bioenergy Feedstock Strategy.

The landmark plan is investigating how the nation can harness its vast untapped resources, from crop residues and tallow to used cooking oil and organic waste, to fuel the next generation of low-carbon energy.

Bioenergy – including renewable or low carbon liquid fuels (LCLF), low carbon gases and solid biofuels – is a critical factor in Australia’s net-zero transition according to Bioenergy Australia CEO and the Low Carbon Fuels Alliance of Australia and New Zealand (LCFAANZ) founder Shahana McKenzie.
