Submission: Australian Energy Market Operator FY26 corporate plan
3 June 2025
AEMO’s role appears to be growing beyond being market operator to become a de-facto advisor on the energy transition. With increased responsibilities comes the need for alignment with good governance principles.
This submission focuses on what good governance principles businesses and investors need from entities responsible for delivering decarbonisation objectives
In 2023, IGCC released a report on investible sector plans[1], which provided key features that plans must have for investors to deem them investible. The principles from this report have been used to inform this response, wherein we propose a series of investible good governance principles, which include being:
- Credible: alignment with decarbonisation policy
- Informed: data gathering, research and modelling
- Clear: decision-making
- Comprehensive: strategic advice
- Action Orientated: planning for a dynamic system
