The distribution tariffs consist of capacity and commodity charges that apply for use of the distribution network. The tariff calculations are based on the allowable revenue, as agreed with the CER, and forecast demands.
The distribution tariff uses a tiered structure whereby alternative charges are applied to customers based on their annual quantities. The charging categories are as follows:
(1) ≤73 MWh
(2) > 73 MWh - ≤14,653 MWh
(3) > 14,653 MWh - ≤57,500 MWh
(4) > 57,000 MWh
Allowable revenue is calculated to reward the asset owner’s investment in the transmission systems and also to recover allowable operating costs. Forecast capacities/demand are based on expected reserved capacity and expected commodity use of gas. There is an 80:20 capacity/commodity split to recover the allowable revenue of each system.
All distribution customers also make use of the transmission network and therefore contribute both distribution and transmission tariffs.
