Synergy is proud to be Western Australia’s largest integrated electricity generator and energy retailer. Working with more than one million Western Australian household and business customers throughout the South West Interconnected System (SWIS), we provide safe, reliable power at a low sustainable cost.
We’re proud to be recognised as an inclusive employer by the Diversity Council of Australia.
Alongside our customers, we’re on a journey towards a more sustainable energy future. This means developing new renewable energy generation and storage solutions to replace our coal-fired power stations, which are planned for retirement by 2030.
Throughout this transition, we’re committed to helping our customers better manage their energy usage and contain their costs, without compromising the provision of reliable energy.
The energy sector is in the midst of a once in a generation transformation. As we continue to innovate and adapt our operations to ensure the safe and reliable supply of electricity, we’re investing in our people and our systems. Most importantly, we’re working with our customers to ensure we’re meeting their current and emerging needs, without leaving anyone behind.
