Market operations rule

Market Operations Rules are created under Section 63C of the Electricity Supply Act 1995 and establish specific requirements for the efficient operation of business-to-business (B2B) procedures in the NSW electricity market. The current Market Operations Rule No. 1 requires electricity retailers and distributors to ensure that data is transferred in accordance with the format required under the Rule.

B2B procedures

The NSW B2B Procedures apply to the billing of network charges, and associated transactions, by an Electricity Distributor to an Electricity Retailer. The network charges include regulated charges, and charges for non-regulated (or excluded services) and regulated services. The specifications describe the automation of the network billing process, its transactions and the associated business rules.
