Energy Companies Control Declarations




16 FEBRUARY 2010 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 16 397

Mainpower New Zealand Limited

  • The price path breach during the 2008/09 assessment period is predominately explained by Mainpower’s actual pass-through costs being lower than budgeted; and
  • Mainpower’s disclosed ROI results do not appear to provide prima facie evidence that it consistently earned excessive profits over the regulatory period.

Marlborough Lines Limited

  • Marlborough Lines’ disclosed ROI results do not appear to provide prima facie evidence that it consistently earned excessive profits over the regulatory period; and
  • Marlborough Lines’ quality threshold breaches during the 2008/09 assessment period do not appear to provide prima facie evidence of a sustained problem. However, the Commission will continue to monitor Marlborough Lines’ performance.

Nelson Electricity Limited

  • The price path breach during the 2008/09 assessment period is predominately explained by Nelson Electricity’s actual pass-through costs being lower than budgeted;
  • Nelson Electricity’s disclosed ROI results do not appear to provide prima facie evidence that it consistently earned excessive profits over the regulatory period; and
  • Nelson Electricity’s quality threshold breaches during the 2008/09 assessment period do not appear to provide prima facie evidence of a sustained problem.

Network Tasman Limited

  • Network Tasman’s quality threshold breach during the 2008/09 assessment period does not appear to provide prima facie evidence of a sustained problem.

Northpower Limited

  • Northpower’s quality threshold breach during the 2008/09 assessment period does not appear to provide prima facie evidence of a sustained problem.

OtagoNet Joint Venture

  • OtagoNet’s disclosed ROI results do not appear to provide prima facie evidence that it consistently earned excessive profits over the regulatory period; and
  • OtagoNet’s quality threshold breaches during the 2008/09 assessment period do not appear to provide prima facie evidence of a sustained problem. OtagoNet’s performance will be monitored under the DPP and should it breach at a future compliance date the Commission would be able to assess the circumstances surrounding the breach and if necessary address any performance concerns at that time.

Powerco Limited

  • The breach of the reliability threshold is significantly reduced when the SAIDI value is normalised using Powerco’s identified MEDs; and
  • Powerco’s reliability results do not indicate deterioration in its performance against its threshold.
