[edit] History

The company is formed from the combination of retail and generation assets purchased from Singapore Power (who in turn purchased them from TXU Corp), and CLP's own Yallourn Power Station, in Victoria's Latrobe Valley. In late 2011, there were media reports that TRUenergy may be floated in 2012.[1]

[edit] Operations

TRUenergy supplies natural gas and electricity to more than 1.25 million residential and business customers throughout Australia. In addition to the retail function, TRUenergy has a significant portfolio of industrial and commercial customers, and a $5 billion portfolio of energy assets, including an underground natural gas storage facility at Iona near Port Campbell (Victoria), a master hedge agreement with Ecogen for 966 megawatts of gas-fired electricity and power stations at Yallourn, Victoria and Hallett Power Station, in South Australia.
