SwitchedOn Podcast: Pathway to electrification being blocked by fossil gas

December 16, 2024 by Anne Delaney Leave a Comment

Australia is still investing heavily in new fossil gas projects, the Australian government’s Future Gas Strategy emphasises the continued use of gas beyond 2050, and we still don’t have a gas reduction strategy.

The CEO of the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA), Amandine Denis-Ryan, explains how fossil gas continues to shape our thinking in Australia, why new gas supplies are not needed in the long term, and why we urgently need a nationwide plan for electrification.
