The NSW Code <strong>of</strong> Practice –<br />
Demand Management for Electricity<br />
Distributors (the DM Code) requires<br />
distributors to facilitate input into the<br />
planning <strong>of</strong> major network upgrades<br />
to allow for the development <strong>of</strong><br />
demand management and other<br />
system support options.<br />
The DM Code calls for a<br />
‘reasonableness test’ to be<br />
performed for all capital projects<br />
to determine if a public process<br />
is required for investigating<br />
non-network alternatives.<br />
<strong>Endeavour</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> performs this<br />
test and summarises the results<br />
in its annual Network Demand<br />
Management Plan (DM Plan).<br />
The test helps determine whether<br />
a request for proposals (RFP) or<br />
similar process is to be issued. An<br />
RFP is a public process in which<br />
the distributor invites interested<br />
stakeholders to make submissions<br />
for system support options, to be<br />
evaluated against network options.<br />

The Network Demand Management Plan also details major projects planned in the next three years and as listed in the<br />
2011 Electricity System Development Review. The table below lists the projects that have passed the reasonableness<br />
test and for which an RFP is to be issued.<br />

Where the DM Code reasonableness test indicates that a public RFP process is not warranted, <strong>Endeavour</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> may<br />
still perform an in-house investigation with specific major customers (generally those responsible for creating the peak<br />
demand) to identify the potential for demand reduction.<br />
