Project Specification Consultation Report – Summary
Regulatory Investment Test – Transmission - October 2024
In November 2022, AusNet and United Energy jointly completed a RIT-T consultation on augmentation of the transmission connection assets at CBTS. Given some of the inputs were materially changed, AusNet Services and United Energy are reopening that Regulatory Investment Test for Transmission (RIT-T) to evaluate options to maintain supply reliability in the Cranbourne area.
This project specification consultation report (PSCR) is stage one of the new Cranbourne Supply Area RIT-T consultation process and has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of clause 5.16 of the National Electricity Rules (NER)1. This notice contains information to enable prospective non-network and standalone power system (SAPS) providers to propose alternative options, including demand-side response solutions or embedded generation and storage.
AusNet Services and United Energy welcome written submissions on the matters set out in this PSCR. All submissions should be titled ‘Cranbourne Terminal Station RIT-T’ and directed to both dasun.desilva@ausnetservices.com.au and ricrobson@powercor.com.au on or before 10th January 2025.
