CHAMPIONS OF CHANGE ENERGY

The Champions of Change Energy Group was established in June 2023. The Group includes representatives from the energy sector including energy generation and production, distribution, retail and resources businesses across Australia. Members have come together to work within and across their organisations to achieve inclusive gender equality and a significant and sustainable increase in the representation of women in leadership.

The Energy Group’s purpose is to ensure women’s expertise, innovation and insights are harnessed as part of Australia’s trillion-dollar energy transition. The intent is that women will be equally represented, engaged in and benefiting from this once in a lifetime social, environmental and economic transformation. The Energy Group’s priorities include developing women leaders at every level; creating workplace cultures where everyone feels respected, valued and equal; and taking a more intentional and coordinated approach to enabling more women and girls to pursue careers in the sector.
