Aviation: Liquefied Petroleum Gas Asked by: Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party - Strangford) Monday 23rd December 2024 Question to the Department for Transport: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will encourage sustainable aviation fuel developers to additionally produce biopropane. Answered by Mike Kane - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport) Biopropane is a low carbon alternative to liquid petroleum gas and is suitable for use in road vehicles and non-road mobile machinery, such as forklift trucks. Biopropane is eligible for support under the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation (RTFO) where it meets sustainability criteria and is for a relevant end use. This could include biopropane where it is a co-product of a sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) developer’s production process.

We are considering the option to procure additional trains to increase capacity, whilst ensuring value for money for the taxpayer.
