Jet Zero Australia
-
Aviation plays a critical role in connecting people and economies, but it remains one of the hardest sectors to decarbonise. With climate targets tightening and few near-term alternatives to liquid fuels, reducing emissions from flight will depend on practical, scalable solutions that work within today’s aviation systems.
Jet Zero is Australia’s leading developer of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), delivering large-scale projects that convert agricultural and waste feedstocks into lower-carbon jet fuel. By combining proven and emerging technologies, Jet Zero is accelerating domestic SAF production — supporting lower-carbon flight, strengthening Australia’s energy resilience and creating regional economic opportunity.

Pacific Biotechnologies Australia
-
Excess nutrients in wastewater are a growing challenge for waterways, contributing to pollution, algal blooms and long-term ecosystem damage. Pacific Biotechnologies addresses this challenge through proprietary macro-algal bioremediation systems that improve water quality naturally. Its RegenAqua technology provides a low-cost, carbon-negative solution that removes nutrient pollution, while converting waste streams into valuable outputs – such as fertiliser, biofuels and nutraceutical inputs.
With an operational project in regional Queensland, growing industry recognition, and active engagement with major water authorities across Eastern Australia, Pacific Biotechnologies is well positioned to scale nature-based infrastructure supporting healthier waterways and a more circular, resource-efficient economy.

National Renewable Network
-
As energy costs rise and grid pressures intensify, access to rooftop solar remains uneven.
National Renewable Network (NRN) funds and installs residential solar battery systems at no upfront cost to homeowners. By aggregating distributed storage, energy retailers can access stored electricity during peak demand, improving grid performance and reducing reliance on fossil-fuel generation.
With plans to deploy systems across hundreds of thousands of Australian homes by 2030, NRN is scaling distributed infrastructure to lower household costs and strengthen energy resilience.

Melbourne Skyfarm
-
Cities are growing denser, yet access to green space and local food production is increasingly limited.
Melbourne Skyfarm’s response to this challenge involved transforming a 2,000m² rooftop car park in Docklands into a working urban farm. The site demonstrates how efficient, high-yield agriculture can thrive in dense city settings, offering practical models for local food production.
With final planning approvals underway, Skyfarm will also serve as a platform for education and engagement – connecting communities to food systems, urban sustainability, and our evolving relationship with nature.

Mt Rothwell Biodiversity Solutions
-
Across Australia, native wildlife continues to face pressure from habitat loss and feral predators. Reversing this decline depends on creating safe, predator-free environments.
Mt Rothwell is a 473-hectare protected ecosystem of grasslands and woodlands bordering Victoria’s You Yangs Regional Park.The sanctuary generates income through vegetation offsets and donations, while running a leading breeding program for endangered species including eastern barred bandicoots, quolls, bettongs and southern brush-tailed rock-wallabies.
Through conservation, education and carefully managed visitor experiences, Mt Rothwell helps ensure threatened species have a future in the wild.

Downforce Technologies
-
Soil plays a critical role in farm productivity, biodiversity and climate outcomes – yet measuring soil health and carbon at scale remains slow, expensive and inconsistent.
Downforce Technologies addresses this challenge with science-led, data-driven solutions that optimise soil health, soil organic carbon (SOC) and biodiversity. Using advanced algorithms and satellite imagery, the platform measures and predicts SOC at scale, delivering fast, consistent and cost-effective monitoring across broad-acre farmland.
By generating reliable soil carbon data, Downforce enables credible carbon projects, supports regenerative farming practices and integrates farm emissions into supply-chain climate reporting — positioning soil as a measurable, investable climate asset.
