WaterNSW rural bulk water
IPART has released its final decision on WaterNSW’s rural bulk water charges for the year 2024-25.
The annual review sets the maximum prices that WaterNSW can charge for rural bulk water services in the Murray-Darling Basin and Fish River Water Supply Scheme
in 2024-25.
IPART’s final decision is to maintain the charges set under the 2021 Determination. This means that increases in charges will be limited to inflation of 3.6% from 1 July 2024.
Solar feed-in tariff benchmarks
IPART published its solar feed-in tariff benchmarks for 2024-25.
The benchmarks provide a guide to consumers about the value of solar feed-in tariffs they can expect to be paid by their retailer.
From 1 July 2024, consumers can expect to receive a flat-rate solar feed-in tariff between 4.9 and 6.3 c/kWh for the solar energy they export to the grid.
We estimate the value of solar exports based on our forecast of the wholesale price of electricity at the times that solar electricity is exported to the grid.
