Discussion Paper – Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) and Peak Demand Reduction Scheme (PDRS) Statutory Review 2025
AGL recognises the important role of both the NSW Energy Savings Scheme (ESS) and Peak Demand Reduction Scheme (PDRS) in achieving the Energy Security Safeguard objectives of ensuring the energy system is “more reliable, affordable and sustainable” . We note our broad support for both schemes, given their likely positive efficiency and cost impacts for scheme participants, and ultimately, NSW customers. While it is too early in the PDRS’ implementation to discern whether the scheme is meeting its objectives, we believe the ESS scheme objectives and design remains largely relevant. As a liable entity within both schemes, AGL has proudly met its targets every year since the scheme’s inception and is committed to its ongoing role in decarbonisation and supporting a more reliable and affordable energy system.
