Our Story

AES is a family-owned business with nearly 70 years of experience delivering major projects and services to boost PNG’s development.

Anthony Avenell established the original business ‘New Britain Electric’ in Rabaul, East New Britain in 1956. The company changed its name to ‘Bougainville Enterprises’ in 1978 and expanded its services portfolio to include electrical wholesaling and engineering services in response to the commercial opportunities generated by the Panguna copper mine.

In 1997 the company restructured and established Avenell Engineering Systems, better known throughout PNG as ‘AES’ which continued to thrive and diversify over the next two decades under the management of Dom Avenell.

In 2007, Dom relocated AES headquarters to Port Moresby and further expanded the company’s service portfolio to include Construction, Property Development, Ports, and what is now known as the PNG Business & Logistics Park.

2022 saw another change of direction for AES. The company transitioned away from its very successful construction and civil contracting division and now focuses these resources on expanding the company’s diversified Property Portfolio throughout Papua New Guinea.

AES is committed to the development and management of Nation building infrastructure, connecting Businesses, Communities and Individuals through our Ports and Supply Base networks. As a group we are motivated to improve our customer’s experience by creating exceptional value, and ‘making business easy’ for companies wanting to grow and launch their PNG operations from our flagship development, the PNG Business & Logistics Park.
