The AER is required under Chapter 6A of the National Electricity Rules (NER) to make a transmission determination for TransGrid in relation to the New South Wales electricity transmission network.
On 31 May 2008, TransGrid submitted its revenue proposal, proposed negotiating framework and proposed pricing methodology to the AER.
The AER conducted the preliminary examination of TransGrid’s proposal required under clause 6A.11.1 of the NER and found that TransGrid included sufficient information in its proposal to satisfy the requirements of the AER’s Submission Guidelines and the NER.
TransGrid’s proposal and supporting information are available below.
