On 24 February, Ministers agreed a way forward on the complex issue of transmission access reform. Ministers agreed to immediately implement ‘enhanced information’ reforms to provide east-coast market participants with better information on the optimal location for new generation and storage. Ministers requested the Energy Security Board (ESB) to work with Senior Officials and stakeholders to develop the voluntary Congestion Relief Market (CRM) and the priority access model and to bring forward a detailed design for consideration by Ministers in mid-2023. Ministers decided not to further develop or consider the congestion management model and congestion fee options.
The project update summarises submissions to the Directions Paper and further modelling undertaken by the ESB, and sets out the proposed process going forward. Accompanying documents include the cost benefit analysis and detailed modelling which identify a substantial net benefit associated with transmission access reform, and show the complexity and risks to the efficient operation of the market under the current design as we transition to a low carbon future.
The ESB will continue to engage with stakeholders on the detailed design of the hybrid model, with a view of submitting final policy recommendations to Ministers in mid-2023.
This joint public forum will provide stakeholders with an update on next steps for the project, an overview of the modelling and cost benefit analysis, and provide an opportunity to participate in a Q&A.
Please note log-in details for the webinar will be circulated via email once registration is closed.

The AEMC would like to invite stakeholders to an online public forum on the consultation paper for the Unlocking CER Benefits through Flexible Trading rule change.
The purpose of this forum is to answer questions about the consultation paper to assist any interested stakeholders in drafting submissions, which are due 16 February.
In light of this, the forum will be focused on a Q&A format – we will assume that attendees have read the consultation paper in advance, and use the majority of the time for questions from stakeholders.
In addition to raising questions during the forum, we encourage stakeholders to submit questions in advance, by email to Jessica.Curtis@aemc.gov.au no later than midday AEDT, Friday 3 February.
We note for attendees that we are still at the consultation stage, and therefore will not have any updated Commission views to share during the forum.
