Advance notice of procurement processes

  • Corporate
  • Transmission
  • Wholesale

The Electricity Authority wishes to provide advance notice to potential providers that it will shortly be commencing the procurement process for two major contracts.

On 3 July, we will be issuing a Registration of Interest (ROI) for commercial market making services on the Government Electronic Tenders Service (GETS). The ROI will run for 4 weeks, closing on 31 July 2023.

Also, in early July we will issue a ROI for the management of the financial transmission rights (FTR) scheme on GETS.

The exact timing of that ROI has yet to be confirmed, but we wish to give those considering tendering for this service advance notice of our intention.
