Viva Energy Australia’s Geelong refinery has received international certification for producing co-processed renewable diesel and advanced recycled plastics, marking a significant advancement in Australia’s transition toward cleaner, low-carbon fuels and sustainable packaging.

The certification for renewable diesel represents an important breakthrough for Viva Energy, positioning the Geelong refinery as an early manufacturer of low-carbon liquid fuels in Australia. The co-processed renewable diesel produced will enable diesel users, including heavy vehicle fleet operators, to reduce their carbon footprint without requiring different technology or modifications to existing vehicles.

By transforming used cooking oil and waste plastics into valuable products, Viva Energy is supporting businesses in reducing emissions and adopting greener alternatives without the need for costly upgrades or operational disruptions.

The certification marks a milestone for both environmental sustainability and the Australian economy, demonstrating the potential for existing refinery infrastructure to play a key role in the country’s decarbonisation efforts.
