Why Australia?

There are many new feedstocks under development including Indian mustard seeds (Western Australia), Millettia (Pongamia pinnata) trees (Queensland, Western Australia), Moring oleifera (Western Australia) and algae (Queensland, South Australia, Victoria).

With 98 per cent of the energy used in the transportation industry still deriving from fossil fuels, and transportation being responsible for more than a quarter of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions, it is crucial that we move towards truly renewable and sustainable fuel sources such as biofuel. The BAA will do its part in promoting a sustainable biodiesel industry in Australia.
