What we do

Energy Policy WA is leading Western Australia’s energy transformation.

We advise the Minister for Energy on energy policy, to assist the Western Australian Government in making well-informed decisions that contribute to the delivery of secure, reliable, sustainable and affordable energy services to Western Australian households and businesses.

Energy Policy WA supports the delivery of the government’s Energy Transformation Strategy by the Energy Transformation Taskforce. We are also responsible for the statutory functions of the Coordinator of Energy, as set out in the Energy Coordination Act 1994, which includes managing fuel, gas and electricity supply disruptions.

our values

Our purpose is to deliver innovative and quality advice and initiatives that shape the energy sector for the benefit of Western Australians now and into the future. Our values of integrity, leadership, excellence, collaboration and people underpin everything we do.  

Energy Policy WA was established on 5 September 2019 as a standalone sub-department of the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety.
