Origin is one of Australia's leading energy companies, exploring, generating and delivering energy to over 4 million customer accounts. Our purpose – getting energy right for our customers, communities and planet – drives everything we do.
As Australia's largest energy retailer, we have an important role to play in providing electricity, natural gas, solar and LPG to Australian communities and work every day to make energy more affordable, more sustainable, smarter and easier for our customers.
We are committed to leading the transition to a cleaner energy future and believe our company, and the energy industry more broadly, should be at the forefront of action to reduce carbon emissions. Origin was the first Australian company to set an emissions reduction target endorsed by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) – aiming to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon emissions by 2032, as we work towards achieving net zero emissions by 2050.
Through the Origin Energy Foundation, we support programs that use education to help break the cycle of disadvantage and empower young Australians to reach their potential, contributing more than $27 million to support community organisations since 2010.

At Western Power, we are responsible for the safe, reliable and affordable transmission and distribution of electricity to customers in south Western Australia. We maintain, operate and develop a network that covers 261,000 square kilometres and connects more than one million customers.
Without our people's talent and ambition, entire communities would be without power.That's why we invest heavily in their training and development, and equip them with whatever they need to keep safe and get the job done.
Bring your passion to one of our teams and you'll thrive alongside experts in every field, doing interesting and impactful work that will challenge you every day.
We’ve ensured the smooth operation of over 11,517 km of high-voltage transmission lines and 136 substations and switching stations across NSW and the ACT, with interconnections to QLD and VIC.
Our most crucial work is leading the transition to Australia’s clean energy future. The traditional coal system that served our country for decades is nearing the end of its life, to be replaced by wind and solar generation.
We’re making the right decisions now to prepare for the opportunities and challenges ahead – a changing climate, population growth and technology innovation.
As we lead the way towards a more resilient future, we’re working closely with our customers and communities to make sure no one is left behind.
Wherever you are in NSW or the ACT, you can be confident in the reliable, affordable and sustainable electricity we transmit as we make a better power system for generations to come.
