The Revenue determination guideline for NSW non-contestable projects sets out how the AER will make revenue determinations for network operators authorised or directed to carry out non-contestable network projects under the NSW Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap.
Our role as a Regulator is to scrutinise the cost of projects in Renewable Energy Zones within NSW that are proposed by the Infrastructure Planner (EnergyCo) and approved by AusEnergy Services Limited as the Consumer Trustee (and occasionally the Minister). We ensure energy consumers pay no more than necessary now and in the future.
The notice of final decision which explains the consultation process, key changes and rationale behind this version of the Guideline can be found at the 2026 Review of the revenue determination guideline for NSW non-contestable projects page.
