Australia has committed funding to a new knowledge hub aimed at supporting the uptake of low-carbon liquid fuels.

The government has committed AU$162,500 ($114,342) to the Low Carbon Liquid Fuels Knowledge Hub, according to an announcement on September 18.

The Hub provides information on low-carbon liquid fuels that can replace conventional diesel, jet fuel, petrol and marine fuels.

It brings together information on fuel feedstocks, supply chains, sustainability, standards, certification, projects and government programmes.

Low-carbon liquid fuels can be produced from biomass and waste materials, including agricultural and forestry by-products, as well as from renewable hydrogen combined with captured carbon dioxide.

The Hub was delivered in partnership with Queensland University of Technology through the iMOVE Cooperative Research Centre.

The Australian Government said the Hub is intended to provide Australians, industry and communities with a single source of evidence-based information and practical resources on low-carbon liquid fuels.
