Jet Zero has completed feasibility studies, negotiated key agreements, attracted strong financial backers and lenders, and recently commenced Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) with a world-leading ATJ technology provider LanzaJet and construction contractor Technip Energies and Long Energy & Resources for a first-of-a-kind commercial scale 113 million litre per year Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and Renewable Diesel (RD) project in Asia named Project Ulysses, after the iconic North Queensland butterfly.
The project, to be located in North Queensland's Townsville State Development Area (SDA), will convert bioethanol from domestic agricultural by products into both SAF and renewable diesel. Delivering Project Ulysses is forecast to help capture the economic benefits of a domestic SAF industry for Queensland. Project Ulysses is forecast to directly deliver 1,000 construction jobs and more than 100 direct operational jobs to the Townsville regional economy. The Project also has strong supply chain linkages to other key domestic industries and will deliver key demand and employment drivers across the agriculture, aviation, energy, defence and logistics sectors.
At completion Jet Zero's Project Ulysses is targeting to:
- Reduce jet aircraft CO2 emissions by approximately 65% versus the equivalent fossil fuel.
- Produce one-sixth of the domestic airline industry's entire 2030 SAF commitment.
- Expand local industrial demand for the emerging Townsville renewable energy hub.
- Provide the ADF with fuel security in a strategically important region.
- Secure a local supply of renewable diesel for the reef tourism, mining, and transport sectors.
- Position Queensland as a world leader in the low-emissions biofuels industry.
REGISTER FOR AN EXPRESSION OF INTEREST
Jet Zero encourages local industry interested in supplying to the project to register for an Expression of Interest (EOI) through the ICN Gateway webpage.
The EOI will be issued in 2026 and suppliers are requested to register against any of the below 4 work packages, and as aligned to the nature of your business.
The specific sourcing categories and supply opportunities will be communicated on the ICN Gateway in 2026, with local industry then being able to provide a response to the EOI.
Please ensure that:
- Your company profile on the ICN Gateway is complete, up-to-date and accurate, including electing to be notified via e-mail of supply opportunities,
- You register your interest as a full scope supplier, as the partial scope option is not available, and
- You respond to all project and work package-specific questions.
FURTHER ASSISTANCE
It is important to note that this is just to register an interest to participate in an EOI and Jet Zero encourage local industry to contact the ICN Queensland in the first instance to improve their understanding.
