On 14 October 2013, the AER published an issues paper which sets out our proposed approach to regulating alternative energy selling models under the National Energy Retail Law (Retail Law). The paper discusses several emerging business models, including solar power purchase agreements, which differ from the traditional energy retailing model. The issues paper identifies high level principles for the regulation of these businesses and proposes an approach to determining whether alternative energy sellers need a retailer authorisation or a retail exemption.
