Australia’s 🇦🇺 Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Member for McMahon.
Chris Bowen
We also had a strong delivery of fuel in May and so far in June, with 92 ships arriving in May and 32 ships already in June.
This is the result of common sense policy in action.
We'll continue to work every day to maintain Australia's fuel security.
Chris Bowen
Other nations have made significant investments in low carbon liquid fuels, and Australia can learn from other nations about how we can improve our domestic fuel security.
And the consensus is clear. We need to increase momentum worldwide to accelerate energy resilience, including through things like increasing clean energy and electrification.
That's why Ministers from around the world gathered this week to progress action on energy security.
Change of scenery for today's weekly fuel update.
Australia currently has:
⛽ 45 days of Petrol
🚜 39 days of Diesel
✈️ 32 days of Jet Fuel
This amounts to an overall 6.4 billion litres of fuel in reserve, the highest amount of fuel ever, since the Minimum Stock Obligation was introduced.
The world agrees on pathways for a more sovereign and secure energy system. And Australia will be major part of that.
While here, I also visited Europe's largest commercial sustainable aviation fuel production site.
Australia is leading the world when it comes to battery installations.
It's because everyday Aussies know that what's good for the planet is good for your pocket.
We're investing in health in McMahon and it's having real effects for our community.
Only a Labor Government will strengthen Medicare.
Today’s weekly fuel update.
We continue to have more fuel in Australia today than when the Iran war started.
⛽️ 43 days of petrol
🚜 36 days of diesel
✈️ 30 days of jet fuel
Forward supply is strong and our refineries are working well.
While others engaged in politics and scare tactics, the Government has been focussed on the job of fuel security
And that’s what we will continue to do.
