REC162-3012 | 35 - Business and Industry in relation to industry | ESWG recommends reviewing AEMO’s Gas Bulletin Board (GBB) to ensure it is effectively communicating all publicly available information to market participants to assist in monitoring daily gas supplies, and any changes to the GBB rules required to improve information and awareness of any potential shortages that will assist the market to make the necessary investments and/or adjustments in maintenance. |

REC162-3017 | 35 - Business and Industry in relation to industry | ESWG notes NGERAC already informally advises ministers on the possible effects of gas emergencies on electricity supplies. ESWG recommends formalising this role by acknowledging it in NGERAC’s MOU. ESWG also recommends an editorial review of NGERAC’s MOU to ensure accuracy and consistency. |
REC162-3022 | 35 - Business and Industry in relation to industry | ESWG recommends consideration of how to ensure good communication and flow of information between the liquid fuels and other energy sectors. One approach that may be considered is that: |
