The Government has published its emissions reduction plan. It includes work to develop a Gas Transition Plan to drive emission reductions from natural gas.

We have published our final guidelines to align the gas industry's processes with the Electricity Price Review's recommendations for the electricity market. Our workstream involved several rounds of consultation with industry, culminating in three recommendations proposing the introduction of new guidelines for gas industry participants.
