Cost Pass-through Applications
Full Retail Competition Cost Pass-Through Application from Energex
On 28 February 2007, the Queensland Competition Authority received an application from Energex for the Authority to approve the pass-through of costs associated with the introduction of Full Retail Competition in Queensland.
Energex submitted a supplementary application on 28 September 2007 addressing issues that had been raised by the Authority and its consultant.
The supplementary application indicates that Energex is seeking approval to pass through $82.7 million of costs associated with the introduction of FRC. This compares with $117 million sought in its original application.
On 30 April 2008, the Authority released its Draft Decision regarding Energex's FRC Cost pass-through Application. The Authority concluded that $20.1 million of the Stage 1 capital costs and the majority of the operating costs ($29.9 million) are justified. Submissions from interested parties are sought by no later than 30 May 2008.
The Authority received submissions from Energex, AGL and Origin Energy on the Draft Decision in late May 2008 and a supplementary submission from Energex on 26 August 2008. The submissions, and other documents relating to this review, can be downloaded below.
The Authority is currently finalising its assessment on Energex's FRC cost pass-through application and expects to release its Final Decision in October.
