AER's Capital Expenditure Incentive Guideline Review - Consultation Paper

On 21 February, we published a consultation paper on the review of the Capital Expenditure Incentive Guideline (Guideline).

This consultation paper initiates our review of the Guideline to accommodate the Australian Energy Market Commission’s (AEMC) amending rule on managing ISP project uncertainty through targeted ex post reviews published in August 2024 (targeted ex post reviews rule change). Giving effect to this we must update our Guideline to enable us to carry out separate targeted ex post review for Integrated System Plan (ISP) projects and non-ISP projects. 

Submissions to our consultation paper closed on 21 March 2025.
