A new book to be published next year aims to document 100 years of gas in Aotearoa New Zealand. The book is part of the centennial celebrations for the New Zealand Institution of Gas Engineers.

GasNZ member Rinnai New Zealand frequently steps up when opportunities across in the gas sector present themselves.

The renewable gas industry in New Zealand has a few challenges to overcome, however if we were to follow the money, biogas may be a sensible place to start. Oil and gas majors like Shell and BP have invested billions of dollars in biomethane.

Max Bowron joined the Bioenergy Australia and GasNZ Australian Renewable Gas Tour 2023, on a Kennedy Educational Scholarship Trust scholarship.

GasNZ, Bioenergy Australia and the Kennedy Educational Scholarship Trust (KEST) were pleased to support two young professionals - Tim Lepper (First Gas) and Max Bowron (Powerco) - to join the GasNZ Renewable Gas Tour of Australia.

Firstgas Group company, First Renewables Limited, and Ecogas are gearing up to to blend bio-methane and natural gas from the second quarter of 2024. The project is a New Zealand first and paves the way for further developments across the country.

In February, Cyclone Gabrielle caused destruction in the Hawkes' Bay region, prompting a quick response from biogas company, Ecogas to collect organic waste in the area.

A report released today has found that as natural gas demand declines, carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) and shifting to renewable gases will ensure reliable, affordable energy for all New Zealanders and help meet the country’s carbon reduction goals.

Recent natural disasters in New Zealand and around the world have underscored the significance of LPG in times of crisis.

Cyclone Gabrielle has left a path of heavy destruction though Northland, Auckland, and down to Gisborne and Hawke’s Bay. About 45,000 homes were initially without power as a result of the cyclone.

Information about the future of gas has been prominent over the holiday season with the launch of the new Future Sure campaign and website.

Members of the Gas Association of NZ and the Liquefied Petroleum Gas Association (LPGA) have voted to merge their respective organisations into one entity - GasNZ.

The findings demonstrate the potential, and sometimes unexpected benefits, that can be realised when factoring gas into the future energy mix.

Energy and Resources Minister, Hon Dr Megan Woods, set the scene for renewable as in her opening speech for GasNZ’s 2022 conference.

New GasNZ member H2X Director Tom Wiseman says green hydrogen is a perfect candidate for the transition from fossil fuels.

“Health and safety must always come first.”

No discussion about the energy transition is complete without a mention of the role hydrogen will play.

With a new theme and programme, the much anticipated Gas Forum is going ahead in October this year.

You check your fuel, you check when you leave the house, but when was the last time you checked your gas?
