About

Western Power exists to solve one of Western Australia's most critical challenges: delivering safe, reliable, and affordable electricity to 2.3 million customers across the south west of the state while enabling a once-in-a-generation transition to renewable energy. As a State Government-owned corporation, Western Power is responsible for building, maintaining, and operating the vast transmission and distribution network that forms the backbone of the South West Interconnected System (SWIS), connecting homes, businesses, and essential community infrastructure to an increasingly renewable energy mix.

For over 70 years, Western Power has been the guardian of Western Australia's energy grid, and today the organization stands at the forefront of the energy revolution. The company is executing an ambitious strategy to expand transmission capacity, integrate microgrids and battery storage solutions, and create autonomous networks that can withstand the challenges of climate change. This one-in-generation expansion - estimated to require unprecedented growth in transmission infrastructure - is unlocking industrial decarbonisation, service renewable generation, and driving regional economic growth. With a vision of "working together to power a cleaner energy future," Western Power is investing $126 million in planning works across northern, central, and eastern corridors, ensuring the grid remains resilient while supercharging Western Australia's vibrant lifestyle for decades to come.

NSW Electricity Networks Operations Pty.

NSW Electricity Networks Operations Pty., operating as Transgrid, manages the high-voltage electricity transmission network across New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. The company controls over 11,517 km of transmission lines and 136 substations, forming the backbone of the National Electricity Market. With a team of over 1,000 people headquartered in Sydney, Transgrid operates critical infrastructure that connects millions of Australians to the grid - infrastructure that traces its origins to networks built in the 1950s. The threat model here is significant: any disruption to high-voltage transmission infrastructure cascades across the entire National Electricity Market. Transgrid's operational technology environment spans substations, SCADA systems, and grid interconnection projects that must maintain reliability while integrating renewable generation at scale. The company runs on Office 365, Salesforce CRM, and SharePoint for enterprise systems, but the security perimeter extends deep into industrial control systems managing transmission assets across two states and territories. Current major projects include EnergyConnect and Humelink - large-scale transmission builds designed to connect renewable generation and expand grid capacity. These projects introduce new attack surface as the network expands and modernizes. Security teams operating in this environment need to understand both traditional IT infrastructure and the operational technology domains specific to power transmission: substation automation, grid interconnection protocols, and the physical-digital convergence that defines modern electricity networks. The company positions itself as leading Australia's clean energy transition, which means securing an increasingly complex grid architecture. More distributed generation, more interconnection points, more digital control systems - each expansion multiplies the coordination required to keep energy flowing while managing cyber risk across legacy and modern infrastructure simultaneously.
