29 SEPTEMBER 2008 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 146 3969

Eastland Network Limited

  • The price path breach during the 2006/07 assessment period was solely caused by the interim rebate provided by Transpower;
  • the Commission considers that Eastland appropriately dealt with the interim rebate by returning the full amount, plus interest, to its customers; and
  • the Commission has no other section 57E concerns.

Electricity Ashburton Limited

  • Electricity Ashburton’s breach of the reliability threshold during the 2006/07 assessment period was caused by an extreme event which contributed over 1500 SAIDI minutes to its annual total;
  • Electricity Ashburton’s reliability results do not indicate deterioration in its SAIDI and SAIFI performance against its thresholds, but the Commission will continue to monitor both Electricity Ashburton’s SAIFI and SAIDI reliability performance trend; and
  • the Commission has no other section 57E concerns.

Electricity Invercargill Limited

  • The price path breach during the 2006/07 assessment period was solely caused by the interim rebate provided by Transpower.
  • the Commission considers that Electricity Invercargill appropriately dealt with the interim rebate by returning the full amount, plus interest, to its customers;
  • when Electricity Invercargill’s five-year running averages for SAIDI and SAIFI are assessed, its performance remains consistently below the threshold;
  • Electricity Invercargill’s reliability results do not indicate deterioration in its SAIFI and SAIDI performance against its thresholds, but the Commission will continue to monitor both Electricity Invercargill’s SAIFI and SAIDI reliability performance trend; and
  • the Commission has no other section 57E concerns.

Mainpower New Zealand Limited

  • As the SAIDI and SAIFI thresholds for the 2006/07 assessment period are no longer exceeded after applying the Beta Method and replacing MEDs with the boundary value, Mainpower is within Safe Harbour for this breach;
  • Mainpower’s reliability (SAIDI and SAIFI) results do not indicate a deterioration in its network reliability against its thresholds; and
  • the Commission has no other section 57E concerns.
