There are three categories of participants in Western Australia’s electricity industry involving three supply chains: 

  1. Generators – Produce electricity from a variety of renewable and non-renewable sources. 
  2. Distributors – Network businesses, such as Western Power, that transport electricity from generation sites to homes and businesses and who are responsible for building and maintaining the network of poles and wires. 
  3. Retailers – Electricity retailers, such as Synergy, who purchase electricity from generators and supply electricity to homes and businesses.
