Our energy evolution

As technology evolves, so does the way we connect electricity to the grid. Discover the alternative energy generation sources that are powering Western Australia.

What is energy storage and how can it help to provide a reliable energy supply? Discover how Western Power is trialling battery technology in WA.

What is a microgrid and how can it provide a reliable source of energy? Find out about Western Power's renewable energy microgrid project in Kalbarri.

Providing reliable power supply to regional WA is a challenge, but Western Power is breaking down those barriers with innovative stand-alone power systems.

For decades we transported electricity to your home from traditional coal-powered generators – that was the primary source of generation and one that suited the technology of the time. But that’s all changing.

The advanced meter program will bring us in line with other energy networks across the world which are taking advantage of smart technology.
