On 29 October 2020, the Victorian transmission business, AusNet Services, submitted its revenue proposal to the AER. The proposal sets out the revenue AusNet Services proposes to collect from its customers through transmission charges from 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2027.
To assist stakeholders in their consideration of AusNet Services' proposal we have published an issues paper highlighting some of the key elements of the proposal, and how stakeholders can assist in our review.
