Update to guidelines for dispatchable load purchaser audits

  • Compliance

We have updated the Guideline for dispatchable load purchaser audits to reflect changes in the Electricity Industry Participation Code 2010, following the implementation of real-time pricing and other minor Code amendments.

The guideline provides auditors with a framework for auditing dispatch capable load stations’ compliance with the Code obligations.

Dispatchable load purchasers are required to submit audits annually and include checking processes around:

  • gathering and storing raw meter data
  • creation and management of volume information, including validating, estimating, storing, correcting, and archiving
  • submission of information to the grid owner and reconciliation manager.
