Endeavour Energy: your electricity network

Endeavour Energy owns and operates the electricity network across Sydney's Greater West, the Blue Mountains, the Illawarra and the South Coast of New South Wales. Because a distributor is a regulated monopoly tied to your address, you cannot choose it, but you can still understand what it does, how to report an outage and how network charges shape your bill.

How it works

What does Endeavour Energy actually do?

Your electricity bill involves two different companies. Knowing which is which saves you calling the wrong number in a blackout.

Endeavour Energy (your distributor)

Owns the poles, wires, substations and meters across New South Wales. It connects your home, reads your meter, and restores power after a fault. You cannot choose or switch it: it is a regulated monopoly for your address.

Your retailer (the company on your bill)

Sells you the electricity, sets your plan and rates, and sends your bill. You can compare and switch retailers at any time, which is the part of your bill you control.

Where Endeavour Energy operates

Endeavour Energy is the regulated electricity distributor for Greater Western Sydney, the Blue Mountains, the Illawarra and the NSW South Coast. Not sure if Endeavour is your distributor? It is printed on your electricity bill, or you can check by postcode on its website.

Power is out? Call Endeavour Energy, not your retailer

In a blackout, your retailer cannot help: it does not own the wires. Report the outage to Endeavour Energy on its 24/7 faults line 13 10 03. If life is at risk or a powerline is down, call 000 first.

Endeavour Energy is the electricity distributor for Greater Western Sydney, the Blue Mountains, the Illawarra and the NSW South Coast. Your distributor is fixed by your address, so you cannot switch it.

Call the Endeavour Energy 24/7 faults and emergencies line on 13 10 03, or check its outage map at endeavourenergy.com.au. If a powerline is down or life is at risk, call Triple Zero (000) first. See our Endeavour outages page for the full steps.

You cannot switch your distributor, it is a regulated monopoly for your address. You can switch your retailer (the company on your bill) at any time, which is the part of your bill you control. Endeavour Energy keeps running the network whoever you buy from.

Endeavour Energy pays an automatic Guaranteed Service Level (GSL) credit when the number or duration of your interruptions passes the set threshold in a financial year. The credit is paid automatically through your retailer, usually without a claim. See our power outage guide for how the scheme works.

You can't choose Endeavour, but you can cut the rest of your bill

Network charges are fixed by your distributor, but they are only part of your bill. The retailer's energy and supply charges are the part you control. Compare retailers that supply your address to find a cheaper plan.
