We will need new sources of gas

Australia is committed to reaching net zero emissions by 2050, and we will need gas to get there.

A future made in Australia will need Australian gas. We will need affordable gas to support energy reliability for households and businesses as we move to a more renewable grid. We need gas to support Australian manufacturing and Australian industry, and tens of thousands of Australian jobs in the manufacturing sector.

Our region needs our gas to warm their homes and cook their meals. And to power the great cities of Asia. We need gas to help us achieve our commitment to net zero. Our trading partners depend on our gas to meet their commitments to net zero.
