Ring Fencing – Provider of Last Resort


Ring Fencing – Provider of Last Resort

Ring-fencing regulations were introduced on 1 January 2018 to support the creation of a level playing field for providers of contestable services in new and existing NSW markets.
Essential Energy is only able to provide contestable services in limited circumstances:

  • In regionally exempt depots; or
  • Where acting as a provider of last resort
If a customer is unable to obtain the services of a third party, they may request that Essential Energy undertake the work as a Provider of Last Resort.
