Under the Electricity Governance (Security of Supply) Regulations 2008, all electricity distributors are required to prepare a Participant Outage Plan. This document, which must be consistent with the Electricity Commission's Security of Supply Outage Plan, is required as a plan for managing severe energy shortages - although these are highly unlikely - and must include details of how rolling outages would be planned and implemented.
Rolling power outages are a last resort measure for managing severe energy shortages. Under normal conditions they should not be necessary, but it is prudent to plan for contingencies where they may be required.
Eastland Network’s Participant Outage Plan has been approved by the Electricity Commission, and can be viewed by clicking on the link below.
The Asset Management Plan has been prepared to meet regulatory compliance requirements, demonstrate responsible asset stewardship, and communicate and justify network management practice and expenditure to Eastland Network stakeholders.

The valuation was not changed as a result of a comprehensive audit under the Commerce Act 1986. The Optimised Depreciated Replacement Cost (ODRC) increased from $54,771,000 to $55,216,000 or 0.81%, however as the economic valuation (EV) was unchanged, so the ODV remained the same.
