Might be easier to insulate the gas piping. There are pvc sheaths that fit around 15mm & 22mm pipe; used cosmetically for radiator pipe drops. For main gas incoming idk maybe wrap some tape around it. Sometimes main gas piping is sleeved with yellow plastic; I guess this negates yhe 15mm away electricals rule !
The pipe sleeving is made of PVC, which is an 'electrical insulating material', so why not?Cant' imagine the decorative pipe sleeving will count as suitable insulating material far as the regs go!

I'd consider dry plywood to be an 'electric insulating material' as well, so I'd be happy with a piece of 6mm plywood dividing the cupboard.
