The Tasmanian Climate Collective’s submission argues that Tasmania’s Future Gas Strategy should prioritise a rapid transition away from fossil gas, with electrification as the preferred pathway for households and most businesses. It raises concerns about the health impacts of gas use, energy insecurity and rising costs, and the risks of allowing new gas connections. The submission supports assistance for households and businesses to electrify, while urging caution around biogas, biomethane and other alternative gases, and calls for greater transparency and meaningful community involvement in the Government’s energy planning.
