SUMMARY

In analysing what drives productivity growth for the Electricity, gas & water industry it is necessary to examine each sub-industry separately. Further, there is also the issue of what is occurring at the state level, especially in regards to timing of reforms and their subsequent effect on productivity. Results from this industry are consistent with the ERIG (2007) report, which indicates that there has been minimal productivity growth since the beginning of the decade.
