The Economic Regulation Authority is seeking to engage with stakeholders on matters that could be included in an issues paper on the framework and approach for Western Power’s sixth access arrangement review.
Western Power is regulated via its access arrangement, which sets out the services, service standards and terms and conditions, including pricing, for users of the network and access seekers.
Western Power’s next access arrangement will apply from 2028 to 2032. The ERA’s framework and approach is an important first step in the regulatory process, setting out the services that will be regulated through the access arrangement and the broad regulatory arrangements that will apply.
We will be publishing an issues paper on the framework and approach in December, and welcome input from stakeholders on any issues, including any improvements they consider would help Western Power meet the expectations of its customers and stakeholders.
