Hydro Tasmania known for most of its history as The HEC is the government owned enterprise which is the predominant electricity generator in the state of Tasmania Australia. The HEC was originally oriented towards hydro-electricity due to Tasmania's dramatic topography and relatively high rainfall in the central and western parts of the state. Today Hydro Tasmania operates 27 hydro-electric one thermal and two diesel power stations.
Key people are D.M.Crean and R. Adair.
