With respect to All Energy 2024, I’ve already written in this article that…
‘the ‘Operating in the NEM’ session that was conducted on Thursday 24th October 2024 was easily the best* session I attended throughout the event.’
… I did drift in-and-out of some other sessions, but did not have the time (or the punctuality, to be at the door 5 minutes early to ensure entry!) to participate fully in any other session. One of the other presentations (in a session partially attended) that did stand out to me, however, was by Melissa McAuliffe of the Energy Consumers Australia – who:
1) Spoke in the ‘Digital Innovations’ Session on Wednesday 23rd October 2024
2) With a presentation titled ‘Access to real time data for consumers’.
This was for several reasons … including because we serve a couple dozen large energy users (including a number who deliver this form of Demand Response).
So, whilst publishing articles here today about Rule Change Proposals, it’s worth me also flagging this one as follows…
| Date | Milestone |

24th June 2024. |
It was way back on 24th June 2024 when the ECA submitted its Rule Change Request:
|
|
10th October 2024. |
A little under 4 months later, the AEMC commenced the consultation process with respect to this Rule Change via the publication of the following Consultation Paper:
This paper noted: ‘Due date: Written submissions responding to this consultation paper must be lodged with Commission by 7 November 2024. ’ Coincident with the publication of the Consultation Paper, the media release ‘AEMC explores smarter data options for consumers’ was published.

It was on Wednesday afternoon 23rd October 2024 that Melissa McAuliffe (Executive Manager, Advocacy and Policy) spoke at All Energy about this Rule Change. |
|
7th November 2024 |
Thursday 7th November was the closure date for submissions on this proposal. As it stands today (2 weeks later), there are a reasonable number of submissions collated here on the AEMC website (for project ERC0399):

|
Thursday 21st November 2024 (i.e. today) |
At this point, we’ve not had time to do more than list the above … but (if time permits) will look forward to exploring more. |
|
Next? |
What happens next? I don’t know the details… |
|
7th August 2025 |
At this point today, this is the date provided on the AEMC website (for project ERC0399) for Expected Completion

That’s all for now…
