The Australian Energy Regulator (AER) recently announced it has commenced assessment of the SA to NSW Interconnector option under the Regulatory Investment Test for Transmission (RIT-T).
A new paper from the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO, 2019a) has highlighted the importance of investing in state interconnectors –such as Project EnergyConnect - to unlock renewable energy sources and drive down power bills for customers.

Our interconnector project was recently listed in The Advertiser as one of 10 projects that could boost the South Australian economy. The article says the Federal Government is concerned about the slowing Australian economy and looking to fast-track infrastructure projects around the country to promote positive social and economic outcomes.
