The energy industry is a fast paced, growing sector in Australia, consisting of two sub- industries, “energy equipment and services” and “oil, gas, and consumable fuels”.
About the industry

This helps to power businesses, homes and health services just to name a few. Energy is vital for powering our world. The energy industry also includes secondary sources such as electricity. Energy prices in accordance with the earnings performance of energy-producers, are largely driven by the supply and demand for worldwide energy.
