  • Statement of Preliminary Issues – 17 August 2021
    ISBN 978-1-869459-13-0 Statement of Preliminary Issues Mercury NZ Limited / Trustpower Limited’s retail business 17 August 2021 Introduction 1. On 3 August 2021, we registered an application from Mercury NZ Limited (Mercury) seeking clearance to acquire Trustpower Limited’s (Trustpower) retail business (the Proposed Acquisition). 1 2. The Commission will give clearance if it is satisfied that the Proposed Acquisition will not have, or would not be likely to have, the effect of substantially lessening competition in a market in New Zealand. 3. This statement of preliminary issues sets out the issues we currently consider to be important in deciding whether or not to grant clearance. 2 4. As set out in the Framework section below, our assessment of the Proposed Acquisition is limited to the impact of the transaction on competition in New Zealand markets. Except to the extent it is relevant to the Proposed Acquisition, our clearance process does not involve assessment of the competitive workability of the relevant markets in general. 5. We invite interested parties to provide comments on the likely competitive effects of the Proposed Acquisition. We request that parties who wish to make a submission do so by close of business on 31 August 2021 . The parties and the Proposed Acquisition 6. Mercury and Trustpower both generate electricity and sell electricity to a range of customers and are two of the five traditional ‘gentailers’ that operate in New Zealand.3 In addition to electricity, Mercury and Trustpower also supply, to varying degrees, other utility services such as gas and broadband.

  • Genesis Energy Limited (GNE) – Hedge Contract Agreed with Meridian Energy
    MARKET RELEASE Date: 8 July 2014 Release: Immediate Genesis Energy Limited (GNE) – hedge contract agreed with Meridian Energy Genesis Energy has signed a “swaption” electricity hedge contract to provide dry year cover for Meridian Energy for four years from 1 January 2015. The 150MW swaption follows on from the existing 200MW swaption between Genesis Energy and Meridian Energy which expires in October 2014. The new four-year agreement has a provision to terminate after the first two years in the event Meridian’s contract with NZ Aluminium Smelters sees a reduction in volume. The structure of the new agreement allows for 100MW to be available year round, with an additional 50MW available from 1 April to 30 October in each year of the contract. Genesis Energy’s prospective financial information (PFI) was prepared on the assumption that the existing 200MW swaption would not be replaced with a similar instrument. The new agreement is therefore expected to have a positive impact on Genesis Energy’s FY2015 PFI. Genesis Energy’s Chief Executive, Albert Brantley, said the agreement provides a useful independent revenue stream and enables enhanced economic utilisation of its diverse portfolio of hydro and thermal power generation located in both the North and South Islands of New Zealand. ENDS For media enquiries, please contact: Richard Gordon Public Affairs Manager Genesis Energy P: 09 951 9280 M: 021 681 305 For investor relations enquiries, please contact: Rodney Deacon Investor Relations Manager Genesis Energy P: 09 571 4970 M: 021 631 074 About Genesis Energy Genesis Energy (NZX: GNE) is a diversified New Zealand energy company.

  • Contracts Disclosure 2019 9/07/2019 1 2
    Disclosure of Contracts relevant to Northpower’s Electricity Lines Business Updated 9 July 2019 This disclosure is made in accordance with clauses 2.4.9 to 2.4.17 of the Electricity Distribution Information Disclosure Determination 2012 (EDIDD 2012) published by the Commerce Commission which requires Northpower to publicly disclose “Prescribed Terms & Conditions” of Northpower’s standard and non- standard contracts relating to the supply of Electricity Lines Services. Contracts with Electricity Retailers Northpower’s contractual arrangement for the provision of Lines Services to most end-use consumers connected to the Northpower network is on an interposed basis. The electricity retailers are “interposed” between Northpower and the end-use consumers, meaning that Northpower has contracts with the electricity retailers and the electricity retailers have individual contracts with the end-use consumers. Table 1 following lists the electricity retailers who have contracts with Northpower for line services to supply consumers on the Northpower network and, for completeness, some additional details.
