Stress testing: certificate of spot price risk disclosure statement updated
- Wholesale
- Compliance
The stress testing regime requires certain participants in the wholesale electricity market (disclosing participants) to test their exposure to changes in spot electricity prices and report the results each quarter.
The Board of each disclosing participant is required to certify certain matters using a prescribed certificate.
This certificate has now been updated to reflect recent changes to the requirements of clause 13.236F of the Electricity Participation Code 2010. Download the certificate or find it at the Stress Test Registrar.
The next set of disclosures under the stress testing regime are due no later than 5pm 23 December 2025.
If you have any questions regarding this change or stress testing, please contact info@ea.govt.nz.
