Maintaining the network

Find out how we keep our network safe, reliable and cost-effective for customers, from aerial inspections using drone technology to innovative solutions like Stand-alone Power Systems for regional and remote areas. 

Explore how we're maintaining our assets and exploring non-network alternatives to deliver the best outcomes for our customers.

Aerial inspections

Remote Asset Surveys are conducted by analysing high-resolution data captured by drones.

Stand-alone power systems

Stand-alone power systems can replace poles and wires in regional and remote areas. They provide safe, reliable and affordable power as existing assets reach the end of service.
