• Fuel tax credits - domestic electricity generation and non-profit emergency vessels or vehicles.

Eligible cleaner fuels include biodiesel and renewable diesel, as well as low or ultra-low sulphur conventional fuels like low sulphur premium unleaded petrol (PULP) and ultra low sulphur diesel (ULSD).
