They are skilled practitioners who have held key and senior roles across multiple network companies including AusNet, TransGrid, ElectraNet, Essential Energy, ErgonEnergy, Western Power and PowerLink.

The Industry 

Transmission and distribution networks are undergoing significant transformation. Many networks are restructuring and outsourcing operations and maintenance activities resulting in workers seeking to upgrade skills for new jobs. The transmission sector is commissioning major expansion and strengthening of existing lines over the next 10 decade, resulting in forecast skills shortages. Also in scarce supply are Cable Jointers who are in demand as electrical infrastructure is increasingly moved from overhead to underground. 

Connectivity to these Networks and meeting compliance and regulatory requirements presents many challenges to new generators. RelyOn Australia offers a range of services to assist.
