As a Scheme Regulator we are required to make an annual contribution determination to ensure the Financial Vehicle has sufficient funds to meet its liabilities.
Our draft guideline sets out our process and method for how we make contribution determinations under the National Electricity (South Australia) (Firm Energy Reliability and Orderly Exit Management) Regulations 2025 (FERM Regulations).
The draft guideline provides transparency on the AER’s role and processes under the FERM Regulations, including the type of information we may require, the methodology we will apply, and the timing of key steps in the annual contribution determination process.
