The City of Sydney has prepared a discussion paper to gather feedback on the future of gas in new developments, focusing on electrification. This supports its goal to achieve net zero emissions by 2035, promote healthier homes and tackle cost-of-living challenges.
Electrification means using all-electric systems instead of gas for heating, cooking, and other energy needs. The paper looks at the challenges and benefits of having gas free, all-electric new developments.
The City is exploring several approaches to move towards electrification and wants to know which approach is preferred, if certain industries should be exempt and if there are any challenges to overcome that haven’t been considered in the discussion paper.
Consultation closes at 5pm on Monday 5 May 2025
