About Energy Australia
Energy Australia is one of Australia’s “Big Three” energy retailers, providing electricity and natural gas to over 1.6 million residential and business customers. Headquartered in Melbourne and owned by the Hong Kong-based CLP Group, the company operates a diverse energy portfolio that includes coal, gas, wind, solar, and large-scale battery storage. Energy Australia is currently undergoing a significant transition, with a commitment to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 and a plan to exit coal-fired generation entirely by 2040. The company distinguishes itself through an “engineering-led” approach to the clean energy transition, investing heavily in flexible capacity projects like the Tallawarra B hydrogen-capable power plant and the Wooreen 350MW battery. As a Clean Energy Council (CEC) approved solar expert, they manage large-scale renewable projects for iconic sites like the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) and Sydney Zoo. Their service model emphasizes transparency and long-term support, offering 24/7 account management and specialized hardship programs for customers in need.
