Consultations

The electricity sector is changing and providing consumers with the ability to take a more active role in how and when they use electricity.

We have identified potential barriers that may limit consumers’ ability to use electricity or electricity services provided by more than one party at the same time, at the same location (multiple trading relationships). Our consultation paper discusses these potential barriers.

We are seeking views on the size of the potential barriers identified and whether removing these barriers might create a net long-term benefit to consumers by improving competition in, reliable supply by and efficient operation of the electricity sector.

The consultation period is 13 weeks. Submissions close at 5 pm on Tuesday, 27 February 2018.
