AIE (Brisbane Group)
BP East-Coast Renewable Fuels Project
The Brisbane Branch of the Australian Institute of Energy (AIE) held
a breakfast presentation on the BP East Coast Renewable Fuels
Project. This project is part of BP’s commitment to cleaner
fuels and sustainable development and is aimed at using Australian
sourced fuel grade ethanol as a blend component in Petrol.
The program, established at BP’s Bulwer Island Refinery in
Brisbane, is focused on achieving greenhouse gas reductions and lower
vehicle tailpipe emissions. The program will also help to develop
a sustainable ethanol industry in Australia and assist Australia to meet
its commitment to greenhouse gas reductions under the Kyoto
Protocol.
