About the Team:

ASL's System Planning and Financial Markets (SPFM) team is responsible for planning of energy infrastructure and management of the financial risk of any associated derivative portfolios.



It does this by supporting ASL’s Board - acting as the NSW Consumer Trustee under the Energy Infrastructure Investment Act 2020 (EII Act) - to publish a two-yearly report on the optimal investment pathway to achieve the renewable generation and storage targets set in the EII Act as well as a 10-year tender program for developers to bid for long-term energy service agreements to support their investment in renewable energy projects. It also supports the Board to authorise network infrastructure projects to uplift network capacity in Renewable Energy Zones (REZ) and to set access fees so generators contribute to the benefit of connecting projects in a REZ.

It also oversees the performance of the Scheme Financial Vehicle established under the EII Act to administer the funds collected from electricity consumers to pay for the energy transition in NSW. The key focus for SPFM in supporting these functions is to maximise the long-term financial interests of NSW electricity consumers.

SPFM provides similar, but more limited services to the South Australian Government in overseeing the performance of its equivalent energy infrastructure fund used to support its energy transition under the SA Firm Energy Reliability Mechanism (SA FERM).

In doing this, SPFM has deep expertise in market modelling and derivative valuation as well as policy, analytical and regulatory expertise.



The team collaborates extensively with AEMO but also with the Energy Corporation of NSW and the Scheme Financial Vehicle who are its partners in delivering the NSW energy transition as well as the SA FERM Financial Vehicle in South Australia.
