mmmmmmmm
Once upon a time in NSW we had a company called the Electricity Commission of NSW
......this entity owned the following
1. the coal mines that fed the boilers that fed the turbines at the power stations
2. the electricity generators fed by the steam turbines
3. the State power grid
4. the sole responsibility for the provision of electrons to both domestic and industrial consumers
5. the sole responsibility for administration , accounting, maintenance of all the states power utilities
From this they had a Board of Directors, a CEO and ancillary staff .........yes of many....but what has happened you ask after privatisation
?
6. the coal mines group now has a board of directors and a CEO and ancillary staff
7. the electricity generation group now has a board of directors and a CEO and ancillary staff
8. the distributions group now has a board of directors and a CEO and ancillary staff
8. the numerous electrical supply Business groups [6 in NSW alone] now each has a board of directors and a CEO and ancillary staff
So that is what has happened ...effectively our Governments have multiplied our senior electricity management costs by
six fold....but with essentially a static number of consumers ........
