Introduction, continued
As our economy grows, Australians are using more energy each year. While
we need gas, electricity and other forms of energy, we also need to look
after our environment by not over using precious energy. The trick is
to do more with less.

At Origin Energy, we encourage wise energy use by:
- Giving more information to our customers about better energy use;
- Improving our own energy use;
- Increasing the use of fuels that are better for the environment such
as natural gas and Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG);
- Increasing the use of electricity from renewable energy sources, such
as wind, solar and hydro.

A highly energy efficient cogeneration worksite at Bulwer Island in Brisbane.
This worksite saves energy use by producing electricity from natural gas
and converting the 'waste' heat into useful steam.
