Locational Price Risk Technical Group
The Locational Price Risk Technical Group (LPRTG) primarily provides specialist and technical advice to the Authority in relation to the detailed design and operation of selected hedge mechanisms for managing locational price risk.
The LPRTG will also provide advice on:
- the current constraint methodologies used to calculate spot prices, and on their effects (e.g. spring washer effects); and
- the outputs from other Authority workstreams that interrelate with managing locational price risk.
The members of the LPRTG are:
- Bill Heaps, Chair
- Airin Alamsjah (nominated by Contact Energy)
- Bruce Girdwood (nominated by Vector)
- Conrad Edwards (nominated by Transpower)

- Mark Harris (nominated by Meridian Energy)
- Nigel East (nominated by Mighty River Power)
- Ralph Matthes (nominated by MEUG)

Prior to 31 October 2010 the LPRTG was administered by the Electricity Commission.
