Demand-side flexibility survey

  • Policy
  • Innovation

The Electricity Authority Te Mana Hiko invites industry participants to complete our survey to assess available demand-response. View the survey…

All participants with confirmed or prospective demand side flexibility are requested to complete the survey by Friday 1 March 2024.

We recognise the many benefits of demand side flexibility, and we would like to further understand and quantify the level of available demand side flexibility to inform current and future policy solutions. The information gathered from this survey will be used to inform our consultation on Potential solutions for peak electricity capacity issues. It will also be used to inform potential solutions for accelerating the uptake of demand response in the wholesale market.

All information provided through the survey will remain confidential, and any information will be aggregated before publication.

For any queries, or to discuss your views on the availability of demand-side flexibility, contact OperationsConsult@ea.govt.nz
