The Australian Energy Regulator (AER) is seeking feedback on the draft AER price-responsive reporting guideline (guideline) in response to a recent rule change to the National Electricity Rules (NER). Stakeholder input will be collated and used to inform the final version of the guideline.
The guideline specifies how we will meet our monitoring and reporting obligations under rule 3.10C.3(b) of the NER to prepare and publish annual reports that analyse the impact of unscheduled price-responsive resources on forecast deviations and the consequential impacts on the efficiency of the market. The objective of our monitoring and reporting obligations is to provide transparency on the impacts of unscheduled price-responsive resources on efficient market outcomes to inform future market reform.
Interested parties were invited to make written submissions on the draft AER price-responsive reporting guideline by close of business 8 October 2025.
