Macca and Fiona spoke to, Aidan Morrison, about anti-gas Victoria faces some hard economic truths

Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan has exposed deep conflicts in the energy transition by allowing households to continue replacing gas cooktops, despite an avowed mission to get the state off ‘fossil’ gas.

The site for the Victorian Gas Substitution Roadmap — announced in 2022 and periodically updated — still heralds “the beginning of the end for gas in homes and small businesses”.

But sparing gas cooktops from the ban on replacing old appliances obscures the end and exposes the plan’s contradictions.

The first is pure politics: the Victorian government’s love-hate relationship with gas isn’t mirrored at the household level.

Plenty of people love cooking with gas. And not many enjoy the government removing functional choices about how they cook and heat their homes.
