Ausgrid has made a decision that affects safety across our communities — cutting nearly 70% of its electrical inspectors. In this video, we explain exactly what’s behind that decision, what it means for workers on the ground, and why it matters to all of us. It’s clear, it’s factual, and it’s based on Ausgrid’s own internal reports. Take a few minutes to watch. It’s important people understand what’s at stake. | ETU NSW & ACT Branch, Electrical Trades Union

Did you see any familiar faces on 7NEWS Sydney last night? We have just switched on a brand-new substation built exclusively to power Sydney Airport. It replaces the original facility that’s been keeping the lights on since 1969! The upgrade means better reliability, lower fire risk and a reduced environmental footprint - all while keeping one of Australia’s busiest transport hubs running smoothly. #Ausgrid #SydneyAirport #infrastructureupgrade | Ausgrid
