  • Forward Contracts in Electricity Markets: the Australian Experience
    Forward Contracts in Electricity Markets: the Australian Experience Edward J Anderson and Xinmin Hu Australian Graduate School of Management University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW 2052, Australia Donald Winchester Faculty of Commerce & Economics University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW 2052, Australia Abstract Forward contracts play a vital role in all electricity markets, and yet the details of the market for forward contracts are often opaque. In this paper we review the existing literature on forward contracts and explore the contracting process as it operates in Australia. The paper is based on interviews with participants in Australia’s National Electricity Market. The interviews were designed to understand the contracting process and the practice of risk management in the Australian energy-only pool market. This survey reveals some significant gaps between the assumptions made in the academic literature and actual practice in the Australian market place. 1 Introduction Wholesale markets for electricity are complex, and their structure varies from one country to another. However, they have in common the characteristic that spot prices for electricity are highly volatile. This is a consequence of the inability to store electric power at any significant scale, so that power consumption and generation need to match each other very closely. Electricity demand is highly variable (e.g. with time of day and weather) and the volatility in price is exacerbated by the way that consumers are usually charged a fixed retail price independent of the spot market price. In this situation various types of generator reserves play an important role in ensuring stability of supply, with the necessary balancing role being 1 played by a ‘system operator’ who has the ability to dispatch generation.

In that submission we said that: • AGL concurs with the Commission’s findings that the South Australian energy markets are competitive; • The high prices for the first quarter of 2008 reflected the structure of the South Australian market and the extreme summer that had occurred; and • Market churn was not directly related to high prices. Since making that submission, AGL has becoming increasingly concerned about a number of comments made by an interested party in submissions to the Commission’s Issues Paper and the Draft Report that claim there is a lack of competition in the wholesale electricity market in South Australia. AGL believes that the facts do not support these contrary submissions and the arguments made in them cannot be supported. We are therefore providing additional information to the Commission to more fully discuss pricing issues in South Australia and to counter these claims. AGL notes that similar claims of market failure and generator profiteering were made in the aftermath of the extreme summer of 2000/01.

Australian Energy Rule determination Market Commission Mandatory PFR 26 March 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 The Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC or Commission) has made a more preferable final rule to require all scheduled and semi-scheduled generators in the National Electricity Market (NEM) to support the secure operation of the power system by responding automatically to changes in power system frequency. An increase in the provision of primary frequency response (PFR) from generators will improve the security of the national electricity system for the benefits of consumers and will give the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) greater confidence that it is maintaining the power system in a secure operating state.

  • Inquiry Into Sustainable Cities 2025
    Australian Business Council for Sustainable Energy Inquiry into Sustainable Cities 2025 Submission to the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Environment and Heritage November 2003 Australian Business Council for Sustainable Energy Suite 304, 3rd Floor 60 Leicester St Carlton Victoria 3053 Tel. +61 3 9349 3077 Fax. +61 3 9349 3049 Email: [email protected] www.bcse.org.au Page 1 Introduction The Australian Business Council for Sustainable Energy (BCSE) welcomes the opportunity to make a submission to the House of Representatives’ Standing Committee on Environment and Heritage Inquiry into Sustainable Cities 2025. The BCSE has endeavoured to provide an effective, considered submission that benefits from ongoing BCSE engagement with the Australian sustainable energy industry in addition to leading research and analysis in this field. As such, this submission focuses on the sustainable energy industry, which is defined below. The sustainable energy industry is critical in the context of developing sustainable cities in greenhouse terms by 2025. Sustainability in this submission refers to the stabilisation and eventual reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in order to avoid detrimental change in climate. Great potential exists in Australia to meet sustainability in the energy sector. Provided with the correct policy framework, the sustainable energy industry is poised to meet customers’ energy needs in a manner that reduces greenhouse emissions while simultaneously increasing economic activity, jobs and investment. The BCSE asserts that from 2006 all new commercial buildings and all Government office buildings should have zero net greenhouse emissions. Household greenhouse emissions from energy use should be limited to one tonne per person (nearly a one-third reduction).

  • A South Australia's Electricity and Gas Industries
    A South Australia's Electricity and Gas Industries Both the electricity and gas industries in South Australia have undergone a range of significant reforms over the last fifteen years, commencing with the vertical disaggregation of the electricity and gas supply chains in the mid-1990s and culminating with the introduction of FRC for customers of all sizes during 2003-04. In the wake of FRC, gas and electricity retailing in South Australia has moved from a single host retailer model to a multiple retailer model. The remainder of this appendix provides both an historic perspective on the reforms that were undertaken in advance of the introduction of FRC and an overview of the current structure of energy retailing. A.1. Progression to FRC A.1.1. Electricity industry progression to FRC Between 1946 and 1995, the Electricity Trust of South Australia (ETSA) was responsible for undertaking all aspects of the electricity supply chain in South Australia including the generation, transmission, distribution and retail sale of electricity. On 1 July 1995, the Electricity Trust of South Australia was corporatised and became ETSA Corporation under the Public Corporations Act 1993. In January 1997 the South Australian Government undertook the first steps towards vertical disaggregation, by transferring ETSA’s generation assets to SA Generation Corporation. The second step toward vertical disaggregation occurred in October 1998 when the South Australian Government announced that, in order to meet its commitments under the Competition Principles Agreement and in preparation for entry into the NEM, ETSA Corporation and SA Generation Corporation would need to be further disaggregated.
