biodiesel / veggie oil
Hi everyone, I just googled across your posts here mentioning biodiesel and veggie oil, so I thought I'd fill you in on the tax issues:
1. Biodiesel is exempt from excise if you are a commercial producer, you get a rebate.
2. If you are a home producer of biodiesel, you can also register with the ATO to get a rebate, but that is dependant on record keeping and also getting an expensive chemical analysis for every batch you make. (In other words, don't bother registering and drive the scene underground! Silly government!)
3. There are (as yet) NO LAWS concerning the use of Straight Vegetable Oil (SVO) or Waste Cooking Oil (WCO) in your vehicle. The difference is that biodiesel is defined by the Aust Tax Office as Methyl Esters, specifically, having gone through the reaction process of making biodeisel. If you want to run your diesel engine on this, you can with no tax. There is no ambiguity about the government defining veggie oil as biodiesel. It quite clearly is not.
I've just set up a new site for Sydney Biodiesel Users (well, anyone in Australia, really) at www.sydneybiodiesel.com. There's a forum there too if anyone cares to ask questions. It's only been up a few weeks, so it's not very well populated yet, but you may find the info you are looking for there. The FAQs of the site have a few topics that deal with the Australian tax issues of biodiesel. The site is there purely to inform and spread the word, it has no other agenda and is not run by any commercial interest.
