Australian energy producers call for increased gas production

Australian Energy Producers has used its submission to the Future Gas Strategy to highlight the ongoing demand for Australian gas and to call for government to plan for more gas production so the economic and emission reduction opportunities of the fuel under net zero can be secured. The blueprint outlines how natural gas is supporting the roll-out of renewables in electricity as coal exits the system; powers major sectors such as manufacturing and mining to make products such as bricks and beer bottles; and can be critical to processing the critical minerals required to achieve net zero.
