Net zero gas can save costs

Hugely expensive electrification isn't the only option to reduce CO2 emissions in homes. GEA's Opinion Editorial in the Herald Sun shows how BioLPG is an easier and cheaper option for homeowners being shunted from natural gas in Victoria. It makes sense to have as many runners in the renewables race as possible and bioLPG is a winner for existing customers and those wanting to stick with gas and be net zero, without the hefty price tag of electrification...

Future Gas Strategy should adopt LPG as 'renewable super gas'

With solar and wind falling short of their targets and coal-fired power shutting down, a correction to the all-electric mantra is a must. Net zero bioLPG will be available in Australia from as early as 2025-26 and renewable synthetic LPG - an actual zero gas - from the mid-2030s. Achieving net zero over the same timeframe as electricity, LPG is the cost-effective and reliable complement to electrification that takes pressure off the grid... [more]
