Stress test scenarios unchanged for the October-December 2014 quarter

 
 

The stress test scenarios previously published on the Authority's website will apply for the October-December 2014 quarter. There is no change from the previous quarter.

The stress testing regime requires certain participants in the wholesale electricity market to apply a set of standard stress tests to their market positions and report the results to their Boards and to the NZX as the independent registrar appointed by the Authority.

Questions about the stress tests can be directed to info@ea.govt.nz. Please include 'stress test' in the subject line.
