About Us
Essential Energy builds, operates and maintains one of Australia’s largest electricity distribution networks, providing a vital service to over 900,000 customers across regional, rural and remote communities.
Our network footprint covers 95 per cent of New South Wales and parts of southern Queensland, traversing 737,000 square kilometres of diverse landscape from the desert to the coast, across alpine to sub-tropical.
Delivering safe and reliable power for our communities is at the core of what we do.
The poles and wires that line our streets deliver the energy that powers the homes, hospitals, schools and businesses that form our communities. But they can also allow for communities to generate, share and store their own electricity.
