Special Episode: The missing molecules - SAF, energy security and Australia’s next industrial opportunity

Much of Australia's energy transition debate has focused on electricity – renewables, transmission, batteries and the grid. But there's another part of the transition that's arguably just as important, and one that receives far less attention: the future of liquid fuels. In this episode, Gilbert + Tobin partners Jamie Guthrie and Ilona Millar are joined by Céline Parle, Sustainable Aviation Fuel Investments, Airbus and Mac Irvine, Chief Financial Officer, Jet Zero Australia, with Giles Parkinson, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Renew Economy, moderating the discussion. They explore the role sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) could play in Australia’s energy transition – from decarbonising aviation and strengthening fuel security to creating a new domestic industry. The discussion considers what it will take to get Australian SAF projects off the ground, including investment, policy support and the demand certainty needed to make projects commercially viable.
