On 7 June 2024 Jemena submitted a cost pass through application to the AER, seeking to recover costs incurred in response to the Victorian Government introducing the Victorian Emergency Backstop Mechanism (VEBM). 

Jemena is proposing an increase in its revenue allowance of approximately $7.8 million ($2021) in the current regulatory control period.

Jemena's confidentiality claims can be found in its application document above; see Jemena - Stage 2 backstop cost pass through application - June 2024, Attachment G (pp. 35-38).

We invited energy consumers and other interested parties to make submissions on Jemena’s VEBM pass through application by close of business 31 July 2024.
