Procedure Change Proposal

Wholesale Electricity Market Rules – Clause 2.10

Date of Notice: 01 May 2024

Matter under Consultation

AEMO has initiated this Procedure Change Proposal to amend the Procedure to reflect amendments arising from the Wholesale Electricity Market Amendment (Reserve Capacity Reform) Rules 2023, gazetted on 13 December 2023.

AEMO has made changes to the Procedure to incorporate:
- Introduction of Availability Duration Gap metrics and Electric Storage Resources Duration Requirements for Electric Storage                            Resources (ESR) and Peak Demand Side Programme Dispatch Requirement for Demand Side Programmes (DSP).
- Replacement of Availability Classes with Capability Classes.

AEMO is seeking comment and feedback on: 

  • whether the proposed changes to the Procedure effectively implement AEMO’s intended outcomes and give effect to the Amending Rules.
  • whether stakeholders believe there are any other relevant issues that have not been considered.
