In line with our final decision on Jemena's electricity distribution network, we have updated Jemena's return on debt for 2022–23. As a result of this update, the return on debt for 2022–23 is 4.42 per cent. This results in an X-factor for 2022–23 of 0.76 per cent. Holding other things constant, a positive X-factor implies a real revenue decrease and a negative X-factor implies a real revenue increase. The revised PTRM shows the updated X-factor.

Update - Cost pass through - VEBM
On 20 September 2024, the AER published its determination on Jemena's cost pass through application to recover costs related to the Victorian Emergency Backstop Mechanism (VEBM). Our decision is to approve a reduced positive pass through amount of $8.3 million (nominal, smoothed). Jemena will be able to recover this in the 2025–26 regulatory year.
