"Our position on climate change is absolutely clear. We unequivocally support measures to progressively reduce global emissions and acknowledge the role the energy sector needs to play in transitioning to a lower carbon future."
Frank Calabria, CEO
What we’re doing
Our generation portfolio supports the growth of renewable energy
Gas generation produces around half the emissions of coal, and our flexible gas generation portfolio provides energy for our customers when the wind isn't blowing or the sun isn't shining. And until closed in 2032, our coal-fired generation will continue its important role, ensuring reliable and affordable energy for our customers.
We've been growing renewables for more than a decade
Almost 20% of our owned and contracted generation capacity comes from renewables and storage. This will continue to grow with a further 530 MW under construction at Stockyard Hill.
We’re helping global decarbonisation
Our gas production in Queensland supports the transition to renewables in Australia and the switch from more carbon-intensive coal in Asia.
Our Beetaloo exploration project has the potential to provide more gas to support a lower carbon future both in Australia and overseas.
Working hand in hand with our customers
GreenPower and Green Gas offer our customers a low cost way to add more renewables into the market
We buy electricity generated by renewable sources and gas offsets directly on your behalf.
We have batteries for solar storage solutions
We offer both Tesla and LG batteries for all-in-one solar system solutions, installed and maintained by our nation-wide solar system experts.
Looking to the future
Looking to the future
We're investigating the potential for hydrogen, made using renewable energy, to become a new, zero-carbon energy source for our customers.
How a low-carbon world will affect our energy generation
It’s important we understand how our business would fare in a low-carbon world. So we tested different scenarios to see the impact on our generation portfolio. In all tests, our portfolio retained a net-positive value. This was due to it providing secure and affordable power during the transition to a cleaner future.
At Origin, we’re delivering the energy our customers need today and connecting them with the energy of the future.
Because that's good energy.
