About ActewAGL
ActewAGL is a joint venture, a private energy company that supplies gas and electricity to customers in the Australian Capital Territory and south-east New South Wales. ActewAGL today is partially owned by the government-owned ACTEW Corporation and AGL (Australian Gas and Light Company).
Started before 1988 as Actew (Australian Capital Territory electricity and water), it became ActewAGL when gas started getting piped into Canberra houses by the early 1990s. Between 2000 and 2006, ActewAGL reorganized, which eventually resulted in AGL and ACTEW Corporation continuing to work retail as partners, and Alinta with ACTEW Corporation as distribution partners.
Today, with ActewAGL’s partnership with the Australian government, it controls over 90% of the ACT market. ActewAGL also maintains an association with energy distributor EvoEnergy which distributes power to the majority of the ACT.
