EUAA Submission: AEMC Reliability Rule Change – Market Price Cap, Cumulative Price Threshold and Administered Price Cap

‘…The EUAA does not support the rule change as presented in the Consultation Paper (‘Paper’) because we do not consider the analysis presented by the Panel and the Commission is robust enough to justify that the changes are consistent with the NEO and the long-term interests of consumers. Specifically: The NEM is no longer an […]

EUAA Submission: Review of CBA and RiT-T Guidelines

‘…The EUAA was one of the proponents of the Material Change in Network Infrastructure Costs rule change.

EUAA Submission: Review of the Retailer Reliability Obligation

‘…The EUAA has been generally supportive of the RRO since its introduction.
