Brief description

Biodiesel production facility at Barnawartha in north-east Victoria, operating since 2008 and run by Just Biodiesel, with ISCC certification since 2019. The BDI-designed plant has a capacity of 60 ML/year and can run on tallow, used cooking oil and vegetable oils including canola oil. In 2026 about 500 tonnes of its tallow-based biodiesel was exported to Singapore by HAMR Energy for a BHP and Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) pilot, blended 50:50 with used cooking oil biodiesel as a B100 marine fuel.
