Customers of major power companies expect them to show leadership in the energy transition – lighting up the road ahead in a way that works for everyone and doesn’t leave anyone behind.
That’s why, at EnergyAustralia, we are determined to lead by making energy better and cleaner. And instead of just talking about creating a greener tomorrow, we are actually doing it today.
To highlight how we are advancing the clean energy transition in Australia, we recently rolled out the “Doing, Not Just Dreaming” campaign. This follows the release of our Climate Change Statement last year, through which we made a commitment to phase out coal by 2040 and reach net-zero emissions by 2050.
We have already announced the early retirement of our coal-fired Yallourn Power Station by mid-2028 and made commitments to pumped hydro, battery and gas projects designed to enable more renewable energy to enter the system.
