Many of our customers ask us, “Will gas be phased out in Australia?” Given my experience, the answer is no gas will not be phase out in Australia. This is because we will transition from natural gas and LPG gas to Hydrogen (H2)
Should natural gas be phased out in Australia?
If you would like to get a better understanding of whether natural gas should be phased out in Australia, you can download the Submission to the Enquiry into Renewable Energy Innovation in the ACT.
I usually find those who comment on the future of gas understand very little about how gas is used in our homes and businesses. These people tend to be so-called experts, who republish parts of documents, written by other so-called experts, that they agree with.
I have operated a solar hot water repair business in Canberra since 1991. I am certified by Rheem as a solar hot water technician, and I was trained at the DUX Solar Hot Water Institute. I am a licenced plumber, gas fitter and electrician. I have also trained in fuel cells and water electrolysis at the Hydrogenics, Hydrogen Academy in Brussels.
