Background
SA Power Networks (SAPN) is an electricity distribution network service provider.
Under the National Electricity Rules (NER) SAPN must submit an electricity distribution revenue proposal for the next five year regulatory control period commencing 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2030 (2025-30) to the AER by 31 January 2024.
Prior to this, the NER required us to review the current Framework and approach paper that applies to SA Power Networks for the 2025–30 period and decide whether to amend or replace it. On 3 July 2023 the AER published the final Framework and Approach for SA Power Networks.
