At AGL we have a passionate belief in progress – technological and human – and a relentless determination to make things better for you, our communities, the Australian economy, and our planet.
Like you, we believe that the world is going through extraordinary challenges. We don’t shy away from the tough questions, we consider the answers carefully, and we take action to shape a better future for all.
We’ve constantly evolved over 180 years. Today we bring all that know-how to transform how Australians produce, share and consume energy. We’re investing in new ideas, partnerships and infrastructure – renewing and expanding our portfolio of sources and products to make them more sustainable, reliable, affordable and useful.
We’ll continue to innovate in energy and other essential services to enhance the way Australians live, and to help preserve the world around us for future generations.
