APA continues to play a leading role in advocating for a stable, long-term approach to Australia's energy security – grounded in the recognition that gas will be essential well beyond 2050 as highlighted in the Australian Government's Future Gas Strategy.  

We have been a vocal and evidence-based contributor to policy discussions, supporting the development of the Future Gas Strategy, and highlighting the importance of new domestic supply from basins such as the Beetaloo and Surat.

Unlocking reliable, affordable, lower emissions domestic gas is central to keeping the lights on, fuelling industry, and supporting a smooth and secure energy transition.

With over $27 billion in energy infrastructure under management, APA has backed our advocacy with action – announcing a five-year East Coast Gas Grid Expansion plan, including new storage solutions to firm renewable energy.  

Working alongside industry, customers and government, APA has helped shift the national conversation. There is now widespread recognition that unlocking reliable, affordable, lower emissions domestic gas is central to keeping the lights on, fuelling industry, and supporting a smooth and secure energy transition.
