Commerce Act 1986

Provisions applicable to electricity industry - Transpower's pricing methodology

57O: Commission may be required to authorise Transpower's pricing methodology

You could also call this:

"The Commission checks how Transpower sets its electricity prices."

Illustration for Commerce Act 1986

The Commission can be asked to approve how Transpower works out its prices. You need to know that Transpower is a company that manages the national grid. The Commission's approval is part of the rules that apply to the electricity industry in New Zealand.

The rule about approving Transpower's pricing methodology is no longer in effect. It was stopped being used on 18 October 2004, by section 10(1) of the Commerce Amendment Act (No 2) 2004. This change was made to update the rules that apply to the electricity industry.
