Wholesale Gas Price for AGL’s VPA Proposal for 2014–16
Prepared for AGL Energy
AGL Energy has asked us to estimate the wholesale price of natural gas at which new supplies would be available at Moomba and at Longford which a retailer entering the NSW market could use to supply small customers. We understand that our estimate, together with other information, will be used by AGL Energy in proposing the Retail Component for the July 2014 to June 2016 period, under the Voluntary Pricing Arrangements (VPA) with IPART.
We understand that AGL Energy’s proposal to IPART will cover the July 2014 to June 2016 period, and we have estimated the relevant wholesale price for that period. In preparing this report we have relied on a report prepared by MDQ Consulting for AGL Energy.
