FTI Consulting - Dynamic Operating Envelope Policy in the National Electricity Market - June 2022

The AER has published an issues paper on the introduction of flexible export limits by distribution network service providers across the National Electricity Market. Flexible export limits can provide the opportunity for consumers to achieve greater value from their consumer energy resource investments (such as solar panels and batteries), through potentially higher levels of export onto the grid. The paper seeks stakeholder views on a range of matters, including:

• the proposed capacity allocation principles and approach to capacity allocation methodology development by distribution network service providers
• consumer participation, whereby we consider both opt-in and opt-out approaches
• the appropriate accountability and governance arrangements for flexible export limits.
