Integrating Energy Storage Systems procedure changes
A significant number of procedures, guidelines and other documents need to be changed to implement the Integrating Energy Storage Systems (IESS) Rule.
As part of AEMO’s IESS Project, AEMO has worked with the IESS Working Group to develop an approach to optimise feedback.

3. are not expected to involve material cost for AEMO; and
4. are straightforward and not contentious in nature.
AEMO's current indicative change program is as follows:
