Keep - don’t have the ability to search for sources right now, but this was the main electricity company in WA for over a decade. Would be shocked if it failed GNG. SportingFlyer T·C 05:29, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
SportingFlyer, I've tried searching but didn't find much coverage other than press releases. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 05:49, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Added digital sources. Additional sources be available in print version. Subject is notable as the former major electricity provider for the state of Western Australia. CASSIOPEIA^(talk) 06:01, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep to the point of snow - the corporate body was of importance in the western australian context, and https://trove.nla.gov.au/result?q=western+power+corporation clearly shows the notability, and importance of that particular iteration of a power generating body in an Australian state.

Keep, satisfies WP:NORG and WP:GNG. Dan arndt (talk) 08:22, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Snow keep - was the major electricity supplier to an Australian state - a WP:BEFORE check would have been a wise move in this instance. Bookscale (talk) 08:47, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:ADHOM with reference to accusing editors of not having carried out a WP:BEFORE search. --Dom from Paris (talk) 10:22, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Bookscale, PS I had done a BEFORE check but it's muddled with other energy providers with the same name. And several of the top hits were press releases. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 15:20, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - as per Jarrah Tree. Hughesdarren (talk) 00:11, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
