Energy Reports

 The Energy Coordination Act 1994 requires the Economic Regulation Authority to report annually to the Minister for Energy on the operation of the gas licensing scheme and licensees’ compliance with the scheme.

The report:

• identify opportunities for beneficial reform of the licensing scheme
• provide an overview of the ERA’s licensing activities during the year
• present data on the ERA’s annual costs to carry out its licensing functions
• provide an overview of licensees’ compliance with the scheme during the year.

Every year the ERA publishes energy reports using data provided by licensees, which examine the trends in energy markets and indicators of performance of gas distributors and retailers who supply small use customers (who consume less than 1 Terajoule of gas per annum) in Western Australia.

The purpose of the reports are to bring transparency and accountability of gas distribution and retail businesses that supply small use customers.
