The implementation of the Retailer Reliability Obligation (RRO) was agreed at the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) Energy Council meeting on 26 October 2018. The necessary legislative and National Electricity Rules (NER) changes took effect on 1 July 2019.

A key component of the RRO is the calculation of a five-year reliability forecast and five-year indicative reliability forecast for each NEM region, to be published in the ESOO. If the reliability forecast identifies a material reliability gap in the required timeframes, AEMO will submit a reliability instrument request to the Australian Energy Regulator (AER).

Based on the reliability gaps reported in the 2024 ESOO, AEMO is requesting the AER to consider making reliability instruments for New South Wales in and Victoria in .





Following completion of the forecast reliability gap period in South Australia 8 January 2024 to 29 February 2024, AEMO notified AER that there were no compliance trading intervals this period.

Based on the reliability gaps reported in the September 2023 Update to the ESOO, AEMO is requesting the AER to consider making reliability instruments for South Australia in .
