The Premier of New South Wales has asked IPART to undertake an investigation into solar feed-in tariffs. The investigation will establish a fair and reasonable value for electricity generated by small scale solar photovoltaic systems.
Frontier Economics has been engaged by IPART to provide expert advice to ensure that the methodology used to determine the solar feed-in tariff benchmark range over the next three years is robust.
This draft report sets out Frontier Economics’ expert advice on the wholesale market value of the electricity that solar PV systems export to the grid, for 2011/12 and 2012/13.
