Electricity Demand and Generation Scenarios (EDGS) 2023 consultation
open
Submissions due:
06 June 2023, 12pm
We are seeking feedback on a set of draft assumptions about the future state of the electricity system. These assumptions will be used to produce our regular Electricity Demand and Generation Scenarios (EDGS) publication.
The EDGS consultation has been extended by two weeks. It is now open until Tuesday 6 June 2023 at 12pm (formerly Monday 22 May 2023 at 5pm). Note that this supersedes any dates in the documents on the MBIE website.
MBIE prepares a range of possible scenarios called EDGS that explores potential future electricity demand and generation in New Zealand. These scenarios are used by the Commerce Commission to assess Transpower’s planning proposals for future capital investment in the electricity transmission grid.
In this consultation, we are seeking feedback from stakeholders to ensure that the potential scenarios presented, and resulting modelling, accurately reflect the potential pathways that the electricity sector could take.
We are interested in hearing your feedback as to whether they agree with these assumptions and whether they align with the definitions we set out.
