The AEMC has received two rule change requests from Adani Renewables:
- On 27 November 2018, Adani Renewables submitted a rule change request seeking to redistribute the allocation of the intra-regional settlement residue (IRSR) so it applies equally between generators and networks users.
- On 5 February 2019, Adani Renewables submitted a rule change request seeking to change the marginal loss factor (MLF) calculation methodology to an average loss factor methodology.
These rule changes have been consolidated so that overlapping issues can be addressed.
Consultation paper
On 6 June 2019, the AEMC published a consultation paper seeking stakeholder input on Adani Renewables’ rule change requests. The AER provided its submission to this consultation paper on 18 July 2019.

The AER provided its submission to the draft rule determination on 15 January 2020.
