Transitioning from diesel to gas fuels where electrification isn't feasible — GEA states natural gas fuels are cleaner, cheaper and healthier than diesel.

Energy security

Reliable backup for renewables

Gas fuels as dependable firming and backup power for a grid built on variable renewable generation.

Net zero pathway

Renewable gases, existing appliances

Adopting bioLPG, renewable DME and co-processed LPG — emissions reduction without forcing appliance replacement on households.

Hot issues
