In accordance with the National Electricity Rules (NER), transmission network service providers are required to submit to the AER a proposed pricing methodology relating to prescribed transmission services which are subject to a transmission determination. The AER is required to assess whether the proposed pricing methodology is consistent with the pricing principles for prescribed transmission services outlined in rule 6A.23 of the NER and the AER’s pricing methodology guidelines (guidelines). The NER requires the AER to develop and publish the guidelines by 31 October 2007.
The AER released its final guidelines and final decision on 29 October 2007 and a copy of each are available below.
