Company

Overview

90 years

Network ownership

The company has a heritage rooted in decades of infrastructure ownership and operation.

It blends ownership and contracting—running its own electricity and fibre networks while delivering engineering and construction services nationwide.
Financially robust, it sustains large-scale contracts with major utilities and returns profits to its consumer-owned trust.
Its projects range from substation upgrades and submarine cable installations to managing transmission lines and future-energy installations.
Specialising in transmission, distribution, fibre rollout, inspection solutions and grid‑scale solar, it tackles every layer of utility infrastructure.
Unusually, the company owns and operates one of the region’s oldest hydro stations and recently launched a portable data centre prototype.
