This is the fourth regulatory period in which Transpower has an individual price-quality path in place.

Transpower’s price-quality path will be reset in 2024 for the next regulatory period commencing 1 April 2025.

We began our stakeholder consultation on 9 October 2023 with the publication of our Transpower RCP4 Process, framework and approach paper, followed by publication in January 2024 of our RCP4 Issues paper.

On 29 May 2024, we published our RCP4 Draft decision. Commissioner Vhari McWha also hosted a presentation to stakeholders and media, which can be found below.

Stakeholder feedback on our draft decision has been received, and cross-submissions close 5pm, Monday 15 July 2024 via infrastructure.regulation@comcom.govt.nz. Please indicate in your cross-submission email if your submission contains any confidential information.

Please note that no extensions will be granted to these consultation deadlines due to the statutory requirement for us to publish our final decisions by 30 November 2024.
We will make our final decision on Transpower's price-quality path in November 2024.
