AEMO manages the day-to-day operations of a number of electricity and gas markets and information services, as well as providing strategic forecasting and planning advice.
AEMO has strategic partnerships with institutions and energy brands across Australia and globally, including the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) and CSIRO.
In addition to regular consultations, AEMO runs regular working groups and forums that allow energy stakeholders to discuss issues and share information.
The Library captures procedures, guides and major reports that live elsewhere on the site.
Australia’s energy system has a governance structure that includes AEMO, the Australian Energy Regulator (AER), the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC), the Energy Security Board (ESB) and the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) Energy Council.
AEMO is an independent organisation that operates on a user-pays cost-recovery basis, with all operating costs recovered through fees paid by industry participants. Our ownership is shared between government and industry.
AEMO has been tasked with updating market procedures, systems and facilitating a transition to the new Five-Minute Settlement (5MS) and Global Settlement (GS) arrangements. To achieve this, AEMO is developing a work plan that details the key activities it will undertake with industry to successfully implement the 5MS and GS rule changes on 1 October 2021 and 1 May 2022, respectively.
