bananamangodogOur home has <a href="https://aus.social/tags/gas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gas</a> and <a href="https://aus.social/tags/electricity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electricity</a> and I have been tracking our usage of both for over a decade. The plan has always been to <a href="https://aus.social/tags/transition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#transition</a> away from gas and go full electric for a few reasons, however it hasn't been until 2025 that the equivalent electricity for gas usage has actually been cheaper than using gas.Then suddenly it is announced that electricity <a href="https://aus.social/tags/prices" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prices</a> will rise by up to 10% from July 2025. This will make it cheaper to continue using gas than it will to move over to electricity (excluding the health benefits of removing gas).Forgive the conspiracy theorist perspective but that seems way to big of a coincidence to have not been purposeful. Especially when you consider 'power' companies often produce both electricity and gas.<a href="https://www.theadvocate.com.au/story/8975512/electricity-prices-to-rise-by-nearly-10-per-cent-in-australia/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theadvocate.com.au/story/8975512/electricity-prices-to-rise-by-nearly-10-per-cent-in-australia/</a>And it certainly isn't the right way to go about making the energy transition equitable.<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/may/27/energy-transition-australia-risks-becoming-a-more-unequal-society-here-is-what-needs-to-change" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/may/27/energy-transition-australia-risks-becoming-a-more-unequal-society-here-is-what-needs-to-change</a><a href="https://aus.social/tags/ConsumerPrices" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ConsumerPrices</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Consumer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Consumer</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/PowerPrices" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PowerPrices</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Power" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Power</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Grid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Grid</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Australia</a>
