Prompted by the recent AER Issues Paper (submissions on that due today – Friday 24th July) but also aware that I’ve not yet published some broader thoughts in response to the ESB’s requests for input into their Discussion Paper on the Two Sided Market concept, I’ve posted some further thoughts.

Thanks for covering this Dan. Just noting that the Reliability Panel has completed the 2022 Reliability Standard and Settings Review and recommended an APC of $500/MWh for the period 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2028 (along with recommended changes to the MPC and CPT).
The Reliability Panel will now need to submit a rule change request to the AEMC in order to implement the recommended changes to the settings. The AEMC would consider any proposed changes through the usual rule change process, allowing further opportunities for stakeholder input and consultation.
