Energy Queensland formed in 2016 with the merger of Ergon Energy and Energex, creating a single energy company that powers communities from Tweed Heads up to the Torres Strait and from Brisbane across to Birdsville. Bringing these organisations together is not just about efficiency, but about creating a strong future for the state’s energy system. Energy Queensland provides an opportunity to deliver better outcomes for customers, employees and all Queenslanders, as we effectively manage the state's electricity network and prepare it for the demands of the future. Energy Queensland is finding ways to minimise the impact of electricity network costs on customers, and release funds for better services for all Queenslanders. We also support growth and development of regional Queensland, helping to keep people in local communities. We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians and pay our respect to all Elders past, present and emerging on whose land we walk, work and live on, and their continuing connection to land, sea and community.
