A second shipment of B100 heads to Australian Agave's Spirit Farm in QLD

March 28, 2024

RFS make it's second delivery of B100 Fuel to the North Queensland distillery making a difference to the environment and the world of Aussie spirits

Australian Agave's Spirit Farm is located 20° South of the equator between Bowen and Airlie Beach in Queensland and is on the doorstep of one of the 7 natural wonders of the world, The Great Barrier Reef. The farm location mirrors Mexico’s Jalisco, located 20° North, making the region ideal for growing agave to be distilled into an Australian spirit that will challenge the world’s best.

 

RFS’s commitment to a cleaner environment, with the supply of Australian B100, a clean burning renewable fuel, has been recognised by Australian Agave's unique business and their passion to make a difference. Strange buddies you might think, however with dedication and foresight these two companies go hand in hand. Both have the spirit to make a difference. In September 2023 the first load of B100 was successfully supplied to Australian Agave’s above ground tank and the success of this shipment is repeated again.

 

Australian Agave's goal is to have a distillery powered by renewable energy that will form part of their broader sustainability energy ambitions, and this is where Refuelling Solutions comes into action together with Echo Tech and the supply of B100 into an RFS/iFUEL T68 tank installed on site. 

 

RFS and our Renewables’ team has been on a long journey over the years, and through entrepreneurs, such as Australian Agave, and the commitment to a sustainable future we are witnessing a dramatic shift in thinking. We congratulate the actions of those who are prepared to think and act to achieve zero carbon by 2050.
