To achieve the best possible outcomes for our customers, we engage and consult with all interested parties on network projects subject to a regulatory investment test (RIT). This is a cost-benefit test that must be applied when we assess options for solutions for distribution projects above $7 million (RIT-D) and transmission projects above $8 million (RIT-T). The test is required under Chapter 5 of the National Electricity Rules.  

These projects relate to capital works for network expansion, replacement, and refurbishment. Visit the regulatory investment test process page for more information.
