flag GrainCorp leads Australia’s effort to certify low-carbon canola for biofuels, backed by $1.1B in federal funding.

flag GrainCorp is leading a push to create an Australian certification standard for measuring the carbon intensity of canola used in biofuels, supporting the nation’s renewable energy growth. flag Backed by a $1.1 billion federal investment through the Cleaner Fuels program, GrainCorp is developing a project with Ampol and IFM Investors to produce about 750 million litres of biofuel annually at Brisbane’s Lytton refinery using HEFA technology. flag The feedstock will come mainly from a new canola crushing plant, with Australian canola already emitting 40% less carbon than global averages. flag A domestic certification system, part of the Guarantee of Origin scheme under the Future Made in Australia Act 2024, aims to verify low emissions for domestic markets, while ISCC certification will continue for exports. flag The initiative seeks to build trust, attract investment, and secure a reliable supply of low-carbon feedstocks for Australia’s emerging biofuel industry.
