Department of Energy and Public Works (Queensland)

The Queensland Department of Energy and Public Works provides a diverse array of services to Queenslanders including building policy and asset management, energy, hydrogen energy, and Queensland Government procurement. We're the builder and caretaker of schools, hospitals, ambulance, police and fire stations, as well as other public infrastructure. We provide cost-efficient energy solutions for Queenslanders and facilitate programs and initiatives that encourage renewable energy. We're also fast-tracking the development, production, export and use of hydrogen in Queensland. We manage procurement for the Queensland Government including the lease of 10,000 vehicles to staff, judges and politicians. We're responsible for policy and legislative reform for the building industry, and we're making sure local Queensland businesses are first in line for government work.
