Energy margin data to be published

  • Generation
  • Wholesale

The Electricity Authority will be publishing an energy margin dashboard on Monday 19 August.

The dashboard will allow people to see the energy margins generators are making selling into the wholesale electricity market.

The Authority had hoped to publish the data today, Friday 16 August, but due to the late receipt of some of the information, we have decided to push out the release until Monday at 7.00pm.

A link to an energy margin dashboard will be published on the Authority’s website here.
