Initiatives Plan
Transpower’s grid services are regulated through five-year regulatory control periods (RCPs). For each RCP we set target levels of performance, and our revenue is set at a level intended to cover the cost of delivering that level of performance into the future. This document sets out our current view of key initiatives we will pursue in coming years to support this process for RCP3, which is the period beginning 1 July 2020.
As we prepare this plan we are entering the RCP2 period, which brings a new performance framework, tighter funding, more complex financial incentive arrangements and new reporting obligations. The magnitude of these changes is such that we cannot respond through incremental changes or initiatives. We have started a transformation process that will drive improved effectiveness and efficiency in coming years, and will support robust planning for the RCP3 period.
