The War on Gas is in full swing in Australia and The Guardian is loving it:
Gas connections will be banned in new homes and government buildings built in Victoria from next year.
The announcement has been backed by environmental groups and the property and construction sectors but the opposition has warned the change could increase household energy bills fuelled by higher demand for electricity.
The Victorian government announced the major energy reform on Friday as part of its plan to reach net zero emissions in the state by 2045.
The government estimates the change will save households up to $1,000 on their annual energy bills – or $2,200 if they have solar installed – and reduce emissions.
That last bit is hilarious, given electricity prices have gone up over 30% just this year alone, Australia flatly refuses to embrace nuclear (despite having the largest Uranium reserves in the world) and is shutting down its electricity generation capacity quicker than Dan Andrews can say “lockdown”.
The Climate Madness continues.
Australian Climate Madness 
I guess bottled gas will be back in fashion.
From where do they plan to get the extra electricity?
How to install it without hydrocarbons?
Complete madness. A retrograde step which could only be supported by engineering ignorant climate zealots.
Yeah not very intelligent governments bureaucrats stopping gas when there isn’t enough generated electricity , from coal, or renewable’s aren’t ready for electricity he increasing use of electricity.
How stupid adding to the costs of living.
Most normal people are fed up with this costly renewable fuels nonsense especially when there isn’t enough electricity power to cope.
Like stupid nonsense buying electric cars not all can afford a car that cost $20,000 an an electric car is way out of the question can’t afford anything over $10,000
Kinda neat they think installing solar will save an extra $1200 a year.
Without FIT I doubt it unless you cover all your property with panels
