The Challenge is the Opportunity

Energy is currently viewed in Australia in just two dimensions – fossil fuels or renewables.

Utilising stranded carbon assets, AFE is positioned to deliver the third future-focussed dimension to Australia’s energy mix.

Following the closure of domestic production capacity, Australia now imports 91% of its liquid energy requirements, increasing exposure to global price shocks and supply disruption.

At the same time, large volumes of carbon-based materials continue to be generated, are largely underutilised, and simply dumped, stockpiled or sent to landfill.

These are not two 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, delivering a third dimension to Australia’s renewable energy mix, supporting our transition to a sustainably fuelled future.

AFE exists to address this structural imbalance and assist in building a resilient sustainable energy future.
