With sustainable bio based fuels seen as a vital contributor to decarbonisation across all sectors such as road, aviation and marine this presents an opportunity for the development of a new industry in Australia that could potentially transform regional economies. Hear from global experts, industry leaders, airlines, fuel producers and investors on how a local industry would create jobs, enhance fuel security, reduce emissions and build stronger regional economies.

The Australian Clean Fuels Summit is an initiative of Bioenergy Australia, The Cleaner Fuels Alliance and the Australia & New Zealand Sustainable Aviation Fuels Alliance.

In addition to the summit, a networking cocktail reception will take place at Parliament House Canberra.*

The Summit will explore a number of topics including;

  • The global movement to clean fuels 
  • The need for clean fuels for Australia to access low emission vehicles
  • Clean fuels needed for aviation and marine decarbonisation
  • Clean fuels and the associated health benefits
