Who we are
Goodbye Gas.
We’re a team of passionate industry leaders, specialising in energy, sustainable architecture and home electrification. We care deeply about the planet, and we’re driven by the impact home electrification can have on climate change.
Why we do it.
There’s an urgent need for climate action.
Let’s talk numbers. Operational carbon currently makes up 27% of total carbon emissions – imagine if it didn’t. We exist to make it easier for homeowners to take real climate action. By electrifying homes, we can significantly reduce our operational carbon footprint and create a sustainable future for our planet.
Meet the team.
This is Ben.
Founder & CEO
Ben’s been an electrician for nearly 20 years, and a business owner since 2012. He’s always been passionate about sustainability, design and doing things properly – which, once combined, you get Goodbye Gas.
