Former Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF) CEO and current Powerlink Chair Craig Doyle has joined Queensland bioenergy player SKY Renewables as Senior Advisor.
With projects planned for North Queensland and the Central Highlands Region, Mr Doyle’s arrival flags an exciting development in SKY Renewables’ corporate leadership expertise.
Across a career spanning both government and industry, Mr Doyle has played a central role in major projects across northern Australia.
His work with NAIF saw billions of dollars of investment into strategic infrastructure projects across the north.
His experience will provide valuable insight to SKY Renewables.
Founder and CEO of SKY Renewables, Simon Yim, welcomed a leader of Mr Doyle’s calibre already joining a high-powered core team.
“Craig brings to our team extensive networks in business, government and the community”, said Mr Yim.
“His experience will be invaluable as we move from feasibility and planning towards project delivery”.
Mr Yim said the company’s projects in Queensland aim to strengthen regional economies while supporting the transition to lower-emissions fuels, particularly through the development of sustainable aviation fuel and other renewable energy products linked to the agricultural sector.
“SKY Renewables has been working closely with primary producers and industry stakeholders to explore opportunities to convert agricultural residues into high-value renewable fuels”, said Mr Yim.
Mr Doyle said he was excited to join SKY Renewables as it proceeds with its Queensland projects.
“SKY Renewables has done the hard yards since 2018, and stands alone in the sector by directly connecting primary producers with biofuels consumers”, Mr Doyle said.
“I’m thrilled to be joining a company that adds value to Queensland’s agricultural sector and is a first mover in producing sustainable aviation fuel right here in North Queensland.”
In addition to his roles at NAIF and Powerlink, Mr Doyle has senior leadership experience at Gladstone Ports Corporation, Mackay Regional Council and Wilmar International.
