Other states will follow suit, I think the ACT already requires new builds to be 'gasless', or, at least, they aren't building the gas infrastructure into new suburbs.

I'd love to get rid of gas. I think an induction cooktop is possible and would be beneficial, but the hot water might be a bit more difficult. The daily connection fee is annoying so I'd like to cut it out entirely rather than just reduce it.

It would be interesting seeing what happens in NSW, given that their gas network has always been in private hands, with very little government involvement.
