The ERA is the independent economic regulator for Western Australia. It regulates monopoly infrastructure and essential services. The ERA also undertakes inquiries, which provide recommendations to government on economic issues that are likely to have significant implications for the people and businesses of Western Australia. The ERA’s work includes: • Carrying out surveillance of Western Australia’s wholesale electricity market; • Determining third-party access arrangements for electricity, gas and rail infrastructure; • Administering the licensing schemes for electricity, gas and water service providers; and • Providing advice and analysis to the State Government on a wide range of economic issues.

  • Post-Show Report
    POST-SHOW REPORT 2016 sponsors and exhibitors included: +61 (0)2 8188 7597 [email protected] www.energyweek.com.au | 1 AUSTRALIAN ENERGY WEEK 2016 REVIEW FROM THE CHAIR Dear Energy Executive, More than 400 attendees at Australian Energy Week in Melbourne in mid-June had the benefit of 88 expert presenters and panelists over 4 days, across 8 different tracks. They covered a wide range of issues that stand between the Australian community and achievement of the CoAG Energy Council’s recently-announced goal of integrating energy and climate change policies to deliver secure supply and the lowest possible prices. Not surprisingly, much of the speakers’ focus - and the audience’s questions - was on the drivers for change and the need for a durable, bipartisan approach to settle investors’ nerves and to encourage lenders’ support for new developments. One of the most interesting questions was posed by speaker Roberto Bocco, Head of Energy Industries at the World Economic Forum. “We are witnessing a continuous trend for decarbonisation,” he said, “but what if the future of energy is different from what we are expecting?” Diversity among leading nations pursuing the transformation of electricity supply, he pointed out, highlights that there is no single pathway to a more affordable, sustainable and secure energy system. The capacity of the Australian Energy Week presenters to pursue the prospects of diversity and the differing pathways to our national energy future was, I think, the major strength of the conference - which will be held again in Melbourne in May next year. Feedback from the attendees thronging the Albert Park venue for the event repeatedly pointed to the benefits of being exposed to a wide range of views in an environment notable for calm discussion - and, having organised and participated in a multitude of conferences over the past 35 years, I was struck by the high level of networking I saw around me.

  • Coverage of the Horizon Power Electricity Network in the North West Interconnected System – Issues Paper
    16 October 2017 Zaeen Khan Public Utilities Office Department of Treasury Locked Bag 11 Cloisters Square WA 6850 Sent via email to: [email protected] Dear Zaeen Coverage of the Horizon Power electricity network in the North West Interconnected System – Issues Paper Alinta Energy (Alinta) welcomes the opportunity to comment on the Public Utilities Office (PUO) Issues Paper: Coverage of the Horizon Power electricity network in the North West Interconnected System (Issues Paper). Alinta’s detailed submission on the Issues Paper is enclosed. Alinta’s Coverage Application, and its submission to the Issues Paper, has demonstrated that the granting of coverage will promote competition in the retail electricity market that exists in the form of those customers supplied with electricity using the Horizon NWIS Network. This will occur through Alinta’s economically efficient use of the network and its services, and so aligns with the Code objective. Further, the benefits provided through lower energy costs and enhanced productivity will support and grow the contribution made by the NWIS geographical region, to benefit those in the region and the State more broadly. Given this and in circumstances where all three coverage criteria are satisfied, Alinta submits that the Minister should decide to cover the Horizon NWIS Network in accordance with the Code. If you wish to discuss this matter further please don’t hesitate to contact me on 08 9486 3709 or Jacinda Papps on 08 9486 3009.

  • On-Supply of Electricity in Embedded Networks
    On-supply of electricity Electricity licensing Under section 7 of the Electricity Industry Act 2004 (Act), anyone who sells electricity to a customer for consumption in Western Australia must hold a licence. A licence is also required to construct and/or operate generating works, transmission systems and distribution systems. Under section 8 of the Act, the Governor can grant a licence exemption to a person or class of persons. The Economic Regulation Authority administers licences and the Public Utilities Office administers licence exemptions on behalf of the State Government. What is the on-supply of electricity? The on-supply of electricity occurs in residential and commercial premises. The on-seller purchases electricity from a licensed retailer (such as Synergy) at a master meter and on-sells the electricity under a licence exemption to customers (usually tenants) on sub-meters in the embedded network controlled by the exempt on-seller. The on-seller is usually the landlord/property owner, but can be someone that manages the embedded network on their behalf. Licence exemptions that allow the on-supply of electricity on commercial and residential premises are in the Electricity Industry Exemption Order 2005. There are separate licence exemptions for caravan park operators in the Electricity Industry (Caravan Park Operators) Exemption Order 2005. Both Exemption Orders are available on the State Law Publisher website. What is an embedded network? An embedded electricity network will normally be a small privately-owned and operated electricity distribution system that sits behind the main electricity network. For example, in Western Australia, the main electricity network (the South West Interconnected System) is owned and operated by Western Power and embedded networks are connected to this main network.
