FLAGSHIP PROJECT
Methanol to Jet SAF Energy Park
Victoria or South Australia
LOCATION: Victoria or South Australia
Australia’s First Large Scale Methanol to Jet Facility. The SAF Energy Park converts low carbon methanol into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to decarbonise and unlock production scale for the aviation industry. It also produces other products such as renewable diesel.

About Project
The SAF Energy Park is a breakthrough facility designed to produce drop-in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) to decarbonise the aviation sector.
HAMR Energy completed a successful feasibility study for the $700–$800 million facility in 2025, identifying the Methanol-to-Jet (MtJ) pathway as the most scalable solution to meet the global SAF supply shortfall. Located in either South Australia or Victoria, the plant will serve as a centralised refining hub for low-carbon methanol produced at HAMR Energy’s regional biomass to methanol sites around the region, such as Portland Renewable Fuels.
The facility is engineered to convert 300,000 tonnes of low-carbon methanol, made from forestry residues and renewable energy, into 125 million litres of SAF per year. This volume of fuel is equivalent to decarbonising approximately 3.5 million economy-class passenger trips from Sydney to Melbourne annually.
Our vertically integrated "Hub & Spoke" model manages the entire production lifecycle transforming under-utilised forestry resources into drop-in sustainable aviation fuel. This approach secures a domestic supply chain for SAF and will help produce competitive supply for airlines, a scalable solution to address the projected 10-million-tonne global SAF supply shortfall from 2030.
