The NSW Government committed to deliver a NSW gas decarbonisation roadmap by late 2026. This is an action in the NSW Consumer Energy Strategy: Powering our People and Communities, which is our plan to ensure everyone can benefit from a sustainable energy future.
The gas decarbonisation roadmap will provide clarity to communities and industry on fossil gas decarbonisation and the role of gas in the future of the energy system.
While many households and businesses are embracing cheaper and more sustainable alternatives to fossil gas, gas will likely remain an important fuel source for some sectors. Gas is used in a variety of ways, so we’ll explore a range of approaches and decarbonisation pathways to reduce gas emissions without putting additional pressure on household energy bills.
We will consult publicly with all interested stakeholders in 2025 to develop the gas decarbonisation roadmap. We will provide more information on the development of the gas decarbonisation roadmap and the opportunities to get involved as they become available. In the meantime, please send any enquiries to [email protected].
