Victoria Gas Substitution Roadmap

Policy Overview

In the 2020-21 State Budget, the Victorian Government committed to developing a Gas Substitution Roadmap with the aim to aid the achievement of the interim emissions reduction targets of 28 to 33 per cent by 2025, 45 to 50 per cent by 2030, and navigate the path to net-zero emissions by 2050. The consultation paper proposes a range of methods to achieve this, including: improving energy efficiency of buildings, appliances, and equipment; reducing fugitive emissions that arise from gas production and transportation; switching from gas to renewable electricity sources; and adopting low-carbon fuels such as hydrogen and biogas. The roadmap was released in July 2022.
