About us:
At United Energy, we’re proud to deliver electricity to 715,000 Victorian customers every day through our network of poles and wires. But more than that, we’re here to power communities, support local businesses and keep critical services running smoothly, we’re essential to them all – and none of this happens without our people.
We’re also the gateway to a clean energy future, dedicated to finding solutions and harnessing new technology to benefit our customers, communities and the environment. This includes industry-leading projects in community batteries, demand management, smart charging for electric vehicles (EVs) and microgrids.
As more customers choose solar, batteries, EVs and smart appliances — the electricity system is becoming increasingly complex, and so too is the level of innovation required to manage it. That’s where you come in. If you want to be part of something essential, be essential with us.
