Gas is the missing piece in policies for Australia’s long-term energy transition, according to a new publication issued by Australia’s energy industry.

Three gas industry associations are calling for coherent energy policy frameworks to unlock the benefits of natural gas for Australian households and businesses in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Australia’s Bright Gas Future, a publication from the Australian Petroleum Production & Exploration Association (APPEA), the Australian Pipelines and Gas Association (APGA) and the Energy Networks Association (ENA) highlights the significant benefits of natural gas and the need for policies that support energy security and carbon abatement ambitions.
