Zero Petroleum, a leading producer of synthetic fuel, is planning to develop a low-carbon sustainable aviation fuel production facility in Whyalla, South Australia. This initiative, known as Plant Zero.SA, is part of the State Government's State Prosperity Project, aiming to leverage renewable hydrogen production and establish Whyalla as a hub for emerging industries. The project involves a feasibility study in collaboration with an aviation industry consortium led by Adelaide Airport and Qantas Airways. Synthetic fuels, created by combining renewable hydrogen with carbon dioxide, are seen as crucial for reducing emissions in the aviation sector. The facility targets an annual production capacity of 10 million liters of synthetic aviation fuel, gasoline, and diesel. This endeavor could potentially create 150 full-time-equivalent jobs during the construction phase and additional operational roles. Quotes from key stakeholders emphasize South Australia's leadership in renewable energy, the potential for green growth, and the importance of sustainable aviation fuels in achieving climate goals. By partnering with industry players and focusing on innovation, the project aims to drive the transition to sustainable fuels while solidifying South Australia's position as a global leader in the low-carbon transition and industrial transformation.
