Under the Wholesale Demand Response Mechanism (WDRM), from October 2021, consumers will be able to sell demand response in the wholesale market. The WDRM Rule introduces a new market participant category, the Demand Response Service Provider (DRSP).
The matter for consultation is the draft Policy, which establishes the methodology by which the AEMO will determine baseline eligibility and compliance under the wholesale demand response mechanism and sets out the thresholds for baseline compliance metrics.
Submissions in response to this Notice of Second Stage of Rules Consultation should be sent by email to wdr@aemo.com.au, to reach AEMO by 5.00pm (Melbourne time) on 8 April 2021.
