Power and Energy continues to be one of the highest profile industries across Australia supporting significant parts of Australia’s resources industries as well as its domestic requirements. The industry covers all energy supply aspects from fuel production (coalmines, gas wells, etc) through to electricity generation, fuel processing, transmission, gas transportation, wholesale electricity market operation, and retail sales. The industry is also characterised by the need to address community expectations such as reduced greenhouse emissions, reduced water consumption, and increased use of renewable energy sources.
