Apparently in some parts of the world there is legislations coming to ban the use of gas-powered ovens and stoves where everyone will be required to use electric models. I think for a lot of regular people with modern day homes this won’t require much change as a lot of people use electric stoves already as an example. I do wonder about various businesses such as a restaurant where replacing the equipment can be a heavy expense.
As well, natural gas heaters are apparently on the chopping block as well. I have often seen people use natural gas heaters for outdoor events such as film productions that require large tents that are housing hundreds of people to stay warm. I do wonder where in these cases where places are making them a law, if people simply can’t afford to throw away their old natural gas equipment are they going to be provided income assistance to buy new appliances as an example?
The same thought runs through my mind with vehicles where if certain places are mandating that everyone must drive an electric car as an example will the regulators actually help people pay for the vehicle? Because the idea of telling people they need to pay everything themselves right away or they can walk as an example probably won’t sit too well with many.
It makes you think too where if you are on a tight budget will you actually wait until some kin of financial assistance is provided before switching or would you just save up and buy new equipment entirely at your own expense with the anticipation that it will legally be required to be replaced?
