Sustainable liquid fuels strategy—options and opportunities paper

Queensland is accelerating the uptake of sustainable liquid fuels through development of the state’s sustainable liquid fuels strategy, a commitment under the Queensland Energy and Jobs Plan.

The strategy will increase the use of sustainable liquid fuels as we transition from fossil-based liquid fuels to next-generation future fuels, hydrogen and electrification.

Increased use of sustainable liquid fuels will play a significant role in achieving Queensland’s emissions targets of 75% reduction of 2005 levels by 2035 and net zero by 2050.

In May 2023, we released an options and opportunities paper (PDF, 2442.1 KB) to seek input from a broad range of stakeholders ranging from fuel users, fuel producers, and sellers across many sectors.

This paper was the first step in developing the strategy and seeks feedback on the opportunities, options, priorities, and actions informing the strategy’s development.

Have your say

Feedback on the options and opportunities paper (PDF, 2442.1 KB) has formally closed. Should you wish to provide additional comments, please email fuelsstrategy@epw.qld.gov.au.

The paper sets out 18 questions to prompt feedback and information sharing.

Next steps

We are considering feedback provided to inform ongoing industry engagement:

• on the options and opportunities raised by stakeholders
• the development of the strategy.

A draft sustainable liquid fuels strategy will be developed throughout 2023 and 2024, for release in late-2024.
