On 5 June 2020, the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) published its final decision for the transmission interconnector between Queensland and New South Wales, Directlink for the 2020-25 regulatory control period commencing 1 July 2020.
The decision sets out the revenue Directlink can collect from electricity consumers through transmission charges from 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2025.
Directlink’s revenue accounts for about 0.1 per cent of the total electricity bill in NSW. This decision will have little effect on customers’ bills.
