Delorean Corporation Ltd (ASX:DEL) has achieved a new project milestone after its SA1 Salisbury Project received accreditation under GreenPower’s Renewable Gas Certification framework. The accreditation enables the company’s flagship renewable gas facility to participate in Australia’s emerging renewable gas certification market and generate Renewable Gas Guarantee of Origin (RGGO) certificates linked to its renewable gas production.

During the afternoon session on 10 June 2026, Delorean shares traded 3.19% lower at AUD 0.091. The stock remains down 46.47% over the past year. The latest company announcement, however, centred on regulatory accreditation for the SA1 project and its role within Australia’s developing renewable gas sector.

About Delorean Corporation

Delorean Corporation is an Australian bioenergy company focused on the development, ownership and operation of bioenergy infrastructure.

The company operates across engineering, infrastructure and energy retail activities, providing capabilities that span project design, construction, ownership and energy generation.

Delorean's Business model centres on converting organic waste streams into renewable energy products, while also generating Revenue through waste processing, renewable energy production and associated environmental products.

The company's portfolio is positioned at the intersection of renewable energy and waste management, two sectors that continue to evolve as governments and businesses pursue emissions reduction initiatives.

GreenPower Accreditation Achieved for SA1 Project

The key development announced by Delorean was the successful accreditation of the SA1 Salisbury Project under GreenPower’s Renewable Gas Certification program.

GreenPower is a nationally recognised accreditation framework administered by the New South Wales Government and operates across all Australian jurisdictions.

The program has historically focused on renewable electricity and has expanded to include renewable gas certification to support the growth of renewable gas production and consumption in Australia.

Through the accreditation process, renewable gas projects are assessed against environmental, social and operational standards before being approved to participate within the framework.

Delorean confirmed that its SA1 facility has successfully met these requirements and has now been formally accredited.

Renewable Gas Certificates Create Additional Commercial Pathway

One of the most significant outcomes of the accreditation is the project's eligibility to create Renewable Gas Guarantee of Origin certificates.

These certificates are designed to verify the environmental attributes associated with renewable gas production.

Under the GreenPower framework, renewable gas producers can generate certificates that may be purchased by commercial and industrial gas users seeking to match their gas consumption with certified renewable gas production.

The system provides a mechanism for businesses to make verifiable emissions reduction claims linked to renewable gas use.

For renewable gas producers, certification establishes an independently recognised framework for the creation, transfer and retirement of renewable gas certificates.

The company stated that renewable gas produced at SA1 will now qualify for the generation of these certificates.

GreenPower Expands Beyond Renewable Electricity

GreenPower has been operating within Australia's renewable electricity market since 1997 and has become one of the country's most established renewable energy accreditation programs.

The introduction of Renewable Gas Certification represents an expansion of the program into renewable gas markets.

According to GreenPower, the framework was developed to support renewable gas production and provide commercial and industrial customers with access to verified renewable gas products.

The certification framework covers several renewable gas categories, including biomethane, biogas, renewable hydrogen and e-methane.

The objective is to provide consistency, transparency and independent verification across Australia's developing renewable gas sector.

SA1 Positioned as Delorean’s Flagship Renewable Gas Facility

The SA1 Salisbury Bioenergy Plant remains one of Delorean’s most significant development projects.

The facility is wholly owned by Delorean and is located within the Northern Adelaide Food Park at Edinburgh Parks in metropolitan Adelaide.

The project is currently under construction and forms a key part of the company's long-term renewable energy strategy.

Management described the accreditation as an important step as the project moves closer to operational readiness.

According to the company, the accreditation further supports the commercial pathway for renewable gas production at the facility.

Stage 1 Designed to Process 70,000 Tonnes of Waste Annually

Under its initial development phase, the SA1 project is designed to process up to 70,000 tonnes of commercial, industrial and agricultural organic waste each year.

These waste streams will be diverted from landfill and processed using anaerobic digestion technology.

Anaerobic digestion is used to break down organic material and generate biogas, which can subsequently be upgraded into biomethane.

The company plans to utilise part of the biogas for on-site power generation while upgrading additional volumes into renewable natural gas for injection into Adelaide's gas network.

According to Delorean, Stage 1 is designed to produce up to 210 terajoules of renewable natural gas annually.

Multiple Revenue Streams Planned for the Project

The company also highlighted the range of products expected to be generated by the facility.

Management indicated that the project has been designed around six potential revenue streams.

These include Renewable Natural Gas, renewable food-grade liquid carbon dioxide, Australian Carbon Credit Units, Renewable Gas Guarantee of Origin certificates, liquid fertilisers and waste gate fees.

The addition of RGGO certificate eligibility through GreenPower accreditation potentially adds another component to the project's commercial framework.

The company believes the project's diversified revenue structure supports its broader renewable energy strategy.

Future Expansion Potential Already Approved

While current development efforts remain focused on Stage 1, the project also includes future expansion potential.

According to Delorean, existing development approvals provide the ability to increase processing capacity from 70,000 tonnes per annum to 125,000 tonnes per annum.

The company noted that this potential expansion remains part of future development planning rather than current construction activities.

Any future expansion would be subject to further project evaluation and development decisions.

ARENA Funding Supports Development

The SA1 project has also secured support from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency.

Delorean confirmed that the project is supported by AUD 6.1 million in grant funding through ARENA's National Industrial Transformation Program.

The funding forms part of broader efforts aimed at supporting industrial decarbonisation and renewable energy infrastructure development within Australia.

Management has previously identified government support programs as an important element of advancing renewable energy projects.

Renewable Gas Market Continues to Evolve

The latest accreditation comes as Australia's renewable gas sector continues to develop.

Industry participants have increasingly focused on renewable gas as one potential pathway for reducing emissions from sectors that continue to rely on gas infrastructure.

GreenPower's Renewable Gas Certification framework is intended to provide a standardised mechanism through which renewable gas production can be verified and recognised.

According to GreenPower, renewable gas may play a role in supporting emissions reduction efforts, energy security initiatives and Circular Economy objectives through the conversion of waste into energy products.

The SA1 project is one of the facilities expected to participate within this framework following accreditation.

What This Means for Investors

Delorean’s latest update centres on the successful accreditation of its SA1 Salisbury Project under GreenPower’s Renewable Gas Certification program. The accreditation allows the project to generate Renewable Gas Guarantee of Origin certificates linked to renewable gas production and represents another milestone as the facility progresses through construction. With Stage 1 designed to process up to 70,000 tonnes of organic waste annually and produce up to 210 terajoules of renewable natural gas, investors are likely to monitor further construction progress and future operational milestones at the project.
