RFS Mini-Tankers Drive Groundbreaking Biodiesel Solution on Major Project

February 28, 2025

Congratulations to our NSW team, with a special shout out to BDE, Steve Hughes, who persistently followed up with CPB Contractors to position the supply of an Australian Biodiesel blend B5 or B20 for all plant and equipment on the Sydney Metro Western Sydney Airport Surface and Civil Alignment Works Project.

Daniel Fernandes, Sustainability Manager at CPB said that this is first of its kind for a construction project in Australia which has already reduced project carbon emissions by 200 tCO2e, which is equivalent to taking 70 cars off the road annually.  This creates a benchmark for sustainable construction in Sydney Metro in particular the SCAW Project.

Mini-Tankers are refuelling all equipment daily on this mammoth project, and with the relationships built, and the trust in RFS to safely deliver a continuous supply of an Australian Biodiesel blend, this is a ground breaking solution for everyone. With global entities moving in the direction of using a Low Carbon Liquid Fuel (LCLF) for construction, Refuelling Solutions’ commitment is stronger than ever in the belief that we can reach a more sustainable future.


NSW/ACT BU Sustainability Manager CPB Contractors, Christine Mueller, advises through the adoption of their purchasing power they are influencing and supporting the supply chain’s transition to low-carbon solutions by working with their suppliers to support this energy transition embracing the positive environmental outcomes.
