Metropolitan Gas Act 1860 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Metropolitan Gas Act 1860 The Metropolitan Gas Act 1860 (also Metropolis Gas Act 1860) was a United Kingdom Act of Parliament that regulated the operation of gas supply companies in London. ==Background== The use of coal gas for illumination and heating had expanded since its invention in the early 18th century by William Murdoch, a Scottish engineer. By the middle of the nineteenth century there were nearly one thousand gas companies within Great Britain with thirteen in London. Increasing competition had led to falling dividends and by the 1850s the industry welcomed change.
