  • NSW Infrastructure Capability Assessment: Energy Baseline Report
    NSW Infrastructure Capability Assessment Energy Baseline Report April 2012 This document is intended solely for the use and information of Infrastructure NSW Report Outline • Key Highlights • Introduction • Energy Industry Overview and Current Situation • Electricity • Gas 22 Key Highlights – Electricity • The majority of electricity generation and all transmission and distribution infrastructure assets in NSW are government owned • The NSW government recently privatised the retail electricity sector and announced plans to sell electricity generation assets • 82% (or 16,600MW) of electricity in NSW is generated by 4 key state owned corporations . Electricity is transmitted over a 12,000km transmission system and distributed over ~250,000km distribution system. The book value of this infrastructure is $34bn and the annual capital expenditure is around $4.5bn • Electricity infrastructure is planned through a number of national and operator network plans including the Electricity Statement of Opportunities, the National Transmission Network Development Plan, TransGrid's Annual Transmission Network Development Plan, the distributors Annual Network Development Plans and Performance Reports, and the 5-year Regulatory Proposals and Determinations by the Australian Energy Regulator • These reports provide evidence that, while a number of the state owned electricity distribution assets are beyond or approaching their standard design lives, electricity infrastructure appears to be in good condition and is capable of meeting demand • The performance of electricity generation, transmission and distribution infrastructure is monitored via a number of indicators. The NSW Government sets reliability and security standards through its Network licences. Key electricity operating licence performance indicators such as the average duration and frequency of interruptions have been improving over time • Electricity demand has been flat for the past 5 years partly due to slower economic growth, efficiency and in response to large price increases.

    Article No. 8115 Available on www.roymorgan.com Link to Roy Morgan Profiles Friday, 30 August 2019 Powershop still number one in electricity satisfaction, despite losing spark in recent months Powershop has won the Roy Morgan Electricity Provider of the Month Award with a customer satisfaction rating of 78% for July 2019. Powershop has now won the past seven monthly awards, remaining unbeaten in 2019. Powershop’s customer satisfaction rating of 78% was followed by Lumo Energy (71%), Simply Energy (70%), Click Energy (70%), Red Energy (70%) and Alinta Energy (70%). E These are the latest findings from the Roy Morgan Single Source survey derived from in-depth face-to- face interviews with 1,000 Australians each week and over 50,000 each year. Powershop managed to maintain its number one position in customer satisfaction, despite it recording the largest decline in ratings of any leading provider, falling from 87% in January 2019, to 78% (-9%) as of July 2019. Over the same period, Lumo Energy, Simply Energy and Click Energy all fell by 4%, Red Energy remained steady, and Alinta Energy increased its rating by 1%. Although Powershop remains well clear of its competitors, if its consistent downtrend in ratings continues for the next few months, we may well see another electricity provider take the lead in customer satisfaction. The Roy Morgan Customer Satisfaction Awards highlight the winners but this is only the tip of the iceberg. Roy Morgan tracks customer satisfaction, engagement, loyalty, advocacy and NPS across a wide range of industries and brands. This data can be analysed by month for your brand and importantly your competitive set.

  • Industrial Pastoral: Lake Macquarie Coal Miners' Holidays
    Industrial Pastoral: Lake Macquarie Coal Miners’ Holidays1 Russell McDougall and Julian Croft As Stephen Page and Joanne Connell note in their mapping of the field, leisure studies is a largely post-war development, evolving internationally out of geography, economics, sociology and a range of other disciplines mostly in the social sciences rather than the humanities.2 Historians have not ignored the subject – there are plenty of historical studies of sports and recreation, the development of national parks, and so on. Yet, while leisure clearly has a vital and dynamic relation to work – culturally, politically, psychologically – labour historians in Australia appear to have been less interested in this area of research.3 We, the authors of this article, are primarily literary scholars rather than historians, but we have been puzzled by this apparent neglect.4 It is not our brief to examine the contemporary meanings of ‘leisure’ in relation to ‘work’ (or ‘forced labour,’ to adopt Guy Standing’s important twenty-first century distinction).5 Instead, our own study of coal miners’ holidays around Lake Macquarie from the late nineteenth and into the second half of the twentieth century considers the bygone rituals and activities of their holidaying from the vantage point of our own present location in an age where ‘simulation and nostalgia lie at the heart of everyday life.’6 Our method draws considerably on participant-observer social anthropology, though our collaboration might be considered to result from a kind of split consciousness, one of us having grown up in the society under focus while the other, a regular visitant, remained on its periphery, looking in.
