Project Justification 2.1. Introduction The justification for the Project is driven by the changing nature of electricity generation in Australia, the dynamics of the National Electricity Market (NEM) in response to that change, and the implications of these on energy affordability and security in South Australia. Justification for the Project and the expected benefits are discussed in this chapter in this context. ElectraNet considered a range of alternatives to the Project which were thoroughly investigated, as described in Chapter 3 Alternatives to the Project. The process used to evaluate the route options and select the transmission line corridor and alignment considered in this EIS is presented in Chapter 4 Route Selection. 2.2. EIS Guidelines The EIS Guidelines require a statement of the objectives and justification for the proposed Project as set out in Table 2-1. Table 2-1: EIS Guidelines addressed in the Project Justification chapter EIS Guidelines and Assessment Requirements Assessment level General Requirements • The specific objectives that the proposal is intended to meet, including market requirements. • Expected local, regional and state benefits and costs, including those that can be adequately described in monetary or physical terms (e.g. effects on aesthetic amenity). • A summary of environmental, economic and social arguments to support the proposal including the consequences of not proceeding with the proposal. Land Use and Economic Effects Assessment Requirement 2: The proposal will have an impact on the State’s economy during construction and operation and may result in immediate and long-term effects on landowners and surrounding uses. • 2.13: Identify any economic implications for the State and the region if the proposal does not Critical proceed. Planning and Environmental Legislation and Policies Assessment Requirement 16: A range of planning, environmental and energy related statutory requirements would need to be met for the construction and operation of the proposed development • 16. 3: Outline any other Commonwealth or State Government initiatives that may relate to the proposed transmission line, including greenhouse issues, principles of ecologically sustainable Standard development, power generation, and the conservation or protection of the biological environment. Describe the proposal in terms of its consistency with these initiatives Aspects of assessment requirements identified in Table 2-1 above which are not addressed in this chapter are listed in Table 2-2 together with the applicable chapter. Table 2-2: Aspects of assessment requirements addressed in other chapters Assessment Requirement Chapter 16.3 Commonwealth or State Government initiatives that may relate to the proposed Chapter 5 Legislative and transmission line including the conservation or protection of the biological environment. Planning Framework Chapter 11 Flora and Fauna Project EnergyConnect Environmental Impact Statement 2-1 Chapter 2 Project Justification 2.3. Overview of the National Electricity Market 2.3.1. Operation of the National Electricity Market The Australian NEM is one of the world’s longest interconnected power systems and consists of around 40,000 km of transmission lines and cables across six states and territories1, regulated by the Australian Energy Regulator (AER). The NEM enables electricity to be exchanged as a commodity between generators, transmission network service providers, distribution network service providers, electricity retailers and market customers. Electricity is traded to match power supply and demand requirements in real time through a centrally coordinated dispatch process managed by the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), enabling electricity demand to be met in the most cost-effective way (AEMO 2018a). AEMO oversees the operations and security of the NEM and is responsible for maintaining secure electricity and gas systems, managing electricity and gas markets and leading the design of Australia’s future energy system. The Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) sets the rules to ensure the market delivers efficient, reliable and safe energy for electricity and gas consumers and provides independent advice to policy makers. 2.3.2. System connectivity The interconnection of otherwise separate electricity networks allows local electricity markets to be integrated into the NEM, enabling customers to purchase power from electricity generators in different regions at a price determined by the supply and demand dynamics of the market. The effect of interconnection is to increase pricing competition through supply of lower-priced electricity to regions experiencing

The AER confirmed on 28 September 2020 that: “…the AER considers that the updated cost benefit analysis provides a not unreasonable basis for ElectraNet’s opinion that PEC remains the preferred option. We expect both ElectraNet and TransGrid to submit full and complete contingent project applications for PEC as soon as possible.” On 29 September 2020, the ElectraNet Board approved submission of a contingent project application (CPA) based on the AER’s confirmation and the CPA was submitted to the AER on 30 September 2020. This note reviews several subsequently announced policies and other changes in the National Electricity Market (NEM) and considers the impact that these could have on the benefits of PEC.

  • 9/06/2021 Dr Kerry Schott AO Chair, Energy Security Board Lodged by Email: [email protected] Dear Dr Schott
    ABN 70 250 995 390 180 Thomas Street, Sydney PO Box A1000 Sydney South NSW 1235 Australia T (02) 9284 3000 F (02) 9284 3456 9/06/2021 Dr Kerry Schott AO Chair, Energy Security Board Lodged by email: [email protected] Dear Dr Schott, Submission to the Energy Security Board’s post 2025 market design options paper We welcome the opportunity to respond to the Energy Security Board’s (ESB) post 2025 market design options paper. Australia is in the midst of an energy transition and the energy system is evolving at a rapid pace. TransGrid’s responsibility during this transition and beyond is to invest in, operate and manage our transmission network safely, securely and efficiently in the long-term interests of consumers. To this end, our Board has very recently made a Final Investment Decision to proceed with the construction of Project EnergyConnect (PEC), a high voltage interconnector between New South Wales and South Australia. We strongly support the work of the ESB to ensure that the National Electricity Market (NEM) design is fit for purpose and provides for a reliable and affordable supply of electricity to consumers. Our view is that it is essential that the post 2025 market design provides consumers with reliable and secure power at lower cost through: Ensuring that a centralised transmission network continues to be the backbone of the energy system - to enable efficiently located, large scale storage and renewable generation in the NEM. The connection of large scale renewable energy zones (REZs) to the grid as well as greater interconnection between the NEM regions will deliver this.
