We have released a Transmission Pricing Methodology (TPM) options working paper and a companion paper for consultation. The consultation period runs until Tuesday, 11 August 2015.

The options working paper presents options for a new TPM and includes indicative charges. The companion paper provides details about a new charging method that the Authority hasn’t previously consulted on. Also accompanying the options working paper is a questions and answers document. Modelling used to develop the options is also available on our website.
