Edward Gustavus Campbell Barton (1857-1942) is hardly a household name in Queensland, however as a pioneer of electricity supply his contribution to the development and modernisation of the state is unquestionable. Born in Toorak, Victoria, Barton had quite an international education, attending school in Dunedin, New Zealand, receiving engineering training in Scotland, and studying in Germany at Karlsruhe Polytechnische Schule. Prior to returning to the Southern Hemisphere in the early 1880s, he superintended the first commercial electric-lighting system in Britain at Godalming, Surrey in 1882. Back in Queensland, Barton worked as an electricity consultant during which time he erected an electrical plant for the Phoenix Gold Mines at Gympie. He was appointed Queensland Government Electrician in 1886 and saw to the completion of lighting installations in the parliamentary buildings and government printing office. In 1888, with C. F. White, he formed Barton, White & Co., manufacturers of electrical equipment, with the intention to supply electric light to the public. This they did, setting up their first power station in Edison Lane off Creek Street, the lane no doubt being named with this early occupant in mind. With their first customer being the nearby Queensland General Post Office, Barton, White & Co. established the first public electricity supply in Australia and became the first electricity supplier in Australia. However, in 1896, suffering from competition with gas companies and a conservative market, the company liquidated. Soon after, the persistent Barton reformed the company as the Brisbane Electric Supply Co. Ltd, with himself as manager. In 1901, operations moved to a new location in Ann Street, where Barton installed the first steam turbine in Queensland. The firm became the City Electric Light Co. Ltd in 1904 with Barton as general manager and a director, before he resigned, becoming a consultant. Edward Barton’s vision, innovation, and determination saw him successfully drive the establishment of electricity supply in Queensland, assisting the State in becoming the national front-runner in the field. Barton without a doubt left a considerable legacy on both the industry and the State. In addition to these achievements, Barton later lectured in electrical engineering and physics at Brisbane Technical College, was elected to the Legislative Assembly as a member for Brisbane North in 1908, was appointed to the first senate of the University of Queensland in 1910, and served as president of the Brisbane Institute of Social Services from 1910-1915. In 1915 Barton left Australia to work with the British Ministry of Munitions and was based in Europe until his death in England in 1942.
