Submission on National CER Roadmap - Redefine roles and responsibilities for power system and market operations in a high CER future (M3/P5)

The Clean Energy Council (CEC) welcomes the opportunity to provide feedback to the Federal Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water’s (DCCEEW) consultation paper on Redefine roles and responsibilities for power system and market operation (M3/P5).

The CEC is supportive of the approach taken in this consultation to clarify, formalise and standardise roles and accountabilities to create the boundaries in the system and the appropriate safeguards to operate. However, we reiterate the importance of preserving customer choice and competition as we move towards a high CER future. As outlined in the consultation paper, realising the potential benefits of CER is not a given.
