Consultation on Forward-looking Transmission Loss Factor Methodology

Timeline

AEMO’s indicative process and timeline for this consultation are outlined above. Future dates may be adjusted and additional steps may be included if necessary, as the consultation progresses. In the event that these dates change, AEMO will clearly identify the timetable on this webpage for this consultation.

Matter under consultation

The National Electricity Rules (NER) require AEMO to calculate and publish, each year, inter-regional loss factor equations and intra-regional loss factors. AEMO has developed the Forward-looking Transmission Loss Factor (FLLF) methodology (often referred to as the Marginal Loss Factor (MLF) methodology) to set out the process by which these factors are determined. Within the scope permitted by the NER, AEMO can amend the FLLF methodology by following the standard rules consultation procedure described in NER 8.9.2.
