The Authority is mandating the annual disclosure of mass market internal transfer prices by integrated generator retailers, the methodology used to derive them and the disclosure of retail gross margin reports by retailers.

This decision addresses the Electricity Price Review recommendation for the Authority to enhance reporting on retail and generation profitability.

In light of the work and consideration still to be undertaken on the information gathering framework project, the Authority has decided to sequence the decision on how this proposal will be implemented (whether through the Code Amendment in the decision paper or under the proposed information gathering framework) at a time when the information gathering framework is being considered – currently planned for October 2021.

In either case there will not be a material impact on the information that will be disclosed or the timings for its disclosure.

Participants will still be required to provide the Authority with ITP information and/or retail gross margin reports by no later than 90 days after the end of their financial year.

The Authority will provide further information on how this proposal will be implemented once a decision has been made on the information gathering framework. 

This decision addresses the Electricity Price Review recommendation for the Authority to enhance reporting on retail and generation profitability.
