Energy Queensland is the largest electricity company in Australia.

We've got more electrical engineers than any other company in Australia.

We want our Future of Energy Electrical Engineering Scholarship holders, to work with those engineers to gain from the experience and know-how they have, to help us electrify the future.

Energy Queensland is offering 100 scholarships of $20,000 per year to undergraduate electrical engineering students at universities in Queensland.

We're looking for the brightest young minds in Australia to join us, to join the electricity industry.

And we want to sponsor them and support them through their university education.

The electrification of everything! The deep electrification of people's homes and businesses, and providing the infrastructure and intelligence behind that infrastructure, to supply electricity safely and reliably and affordably in people's homes and businesses.

There are seven universities in Queensland that offer electrical engineering as an undergraduate degree, and we'll be making sure that we have our Future of Energy Electrical Engineering Scholarships.

50 in regional Queensland and about 50 in the south east.

We're really serious about attracting the best young minds in Australia, to do electrical engineering and join us on the journey of electrifying everything.

My name is Amy Phan and I'm a Graduate Electrical Engineer. I did a few rotations up in Townsville. I was able to go out to the rural network and see all of its configurations and its challenges. And I was lucky enough to move back to Brisbane and I was able to see the different configurations of this network.

So advice that I'd give someone that's looking to apply for the program, is definitely trying to do work experience or a co-op placement if you can. And if you could do an industry thesis with either Energex or Ergon Energy Network. That gave me like a deeper understanding of the business and the industry, and really solidified that I wanted to be in power engineering.

With the uptake of renewable energy connecting into our network, Energex and Ergon Energy Network are really looking for candidates who can bring a different skill set to tackle the way that we've always solved these problems. And those people should definitely apply for the program.

I'm Alice Fleetwood. I'm a Graduate Electrical Engineer with the Ergon Energy and Energex graduate program. I grew up in regional New South Wales on a property with a standalone power system. So it had solar and batteries, and because of that, energy management and the environment's always been really important to me.

It's a really interesting experience being a graduate. There's a lot of diverse work groups and the type of work that we get to do. I've got to work in both Brisbane and the Cairns offices, as well as as far out west of Roma and up in the Cape as well. So that's been a really amazing experience to see some of the different communities that we serve.

I think if you're someone who likes new technologies and working in a diverse range of environments from out in the field to the office as well, and enjoy traveling and working with different people, then I think it would be great to apply for the graduate program. It's definitely an exciting time in the energy industry.
