Global Market - Import Replacement & Export Opportunity
A Structural Shift in Sustainable Fuel Production.
Global transportation fuel production remains fundamentally linear — reliant on finite inputs, exposed to volatile energy markets, and dependent on long-distance supply chains.
Australia is no exception.
Following the closure of domestic capacity, Australia now imports 91% of its transportation fuel requirements, increasing exposure to global price shocks and supply disruption.
At the same time, large volumes of industrial and societal carbon-based materials continue to be generated — largely underutilised or sent to landfill.
These are not separate challenges.
They are two sides of the same structural disconnect. Australia discards carbon that can be commercially recovered, yet imports carbon-intensive fuels that could be produced domestically.
A circular economic model doesn’t just address both issues – it reframes them as a single integrated opportunity.
MeOH exists to address this structural imbalance.
The MeOH Model
MeOH converts industrial and societal carbon-based materials into high-purity sustainable transportation fuels, using proven technologies to transform underutilised carbonaceous materials into productive outputs.
Delivering:
- Domestic fuel production
- Material diversion from landfill
- Reduced carbon intensity
- Sovereign security
Development of strategic domestic capability.
Rather than a linear “extract-refine-consume” model MeOH operates within a circular carbon framework – where waste becomes feedstock, and output becomes value.

Australian Refined Fuel Imports
Road transport dominates, accounting for up to 84% of usage.
Diesel consumption has overtaken gasoline, with national diesel consumption recently hitting 33,297 ML or 59.5% of total transportation consumption.
