On 28 May 2019 , ElecLink Limited submitted proposed modified Access Rules and Charging Methodology for the ElecLink interconnector to the Authority for approval. The proposed modifications were submitted pursuant to Standard Licence Condition 11A of ElecLink’s electricity interconnector licence. The ElecLink Access Rules set out the general terms and conditions a user must accept to obtain and use transmission capacity on the ElecLink interconnector. The Charging Methodology sets out the methods and principles on which charges for the use of the ElecLink interconnector are based.

After careful consideration, we have decided to approve the proposed modified ElecLink Access Rules and proposed modified Charging Methodology. We consider that the proposed modified Access Rules and proposed modified Charging Methodology will better achieve the relevant access rules and charging methodology objectives.  This letter contains directions to approve the proposed modified ElecLink Access Rules and proposed modified Charging Methodology.
