Essential Energy
Essential Energy is a state-owned electricity infrastructure company which owns, maintains and operates the electrical distribution networks for regional New South Wales, covering 95 percent of the state,[1] and the reticulated water network in Broken Hill, New South Wales through Essential Water.[2]
