Overview
On 12 October 2020, United Energy submitted to the AER a ring-fencing waiver application under clause 5.2 of the Electricity Distribution Ring-fencing Guideline 2017. The waiver application has been made to allow United Energy to lease the storage capacity of pole-mounted battery units to a retailer partner as part of a trial project.
On 16 October 2020, we sought submissions from interested parties on United Energy's ring-fencing waiver application. Submissions closed on 6 November 2020.
On 17 December 2020, we published our final decision which grants United Energy a ring-fencing waiver allowing it to lease the storage capacity of pole-mounted battery units to a retailer partner as part of a trial project, until 30 June 2026.
