In its Post 2025 Market Design Review, the Energy Security Board recommended a congestion management model with REZ adaptations – the Congestion Management Model or CMM. The ESB subsequently established a process to work collaboratively with stakeholders to find solutions to the challenge of transmission access. As part of this process, the ESB published a project initiation document which gave stakeholders the opportunity to put forward alternative models.

The ESB received a strong response to its project initiation document. Submissions to the project initiation document can be found here.  The purpose of the upcoming seminar is to give stakeholders the opportunity to explore the features of the various alternative models put forward by stakeholders. The session will inform the evaluation of the alternative models, or elements of these alternative models.

This session will be a collaborative event led by the ESB’s appointed Independent Facilitator. To promote well informed discussion, stakeholders are invited to submit questions on the various models to info@esb.org.au by 17 February. Submitted questions will be provided to model proponents prior to the event.

A link to the forum and preparatory materials will be provided to registered stakeholders closer to the event date.
