This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Peter MacMillan to read a recent response and update the status.

From: Peter MacMillan

Dear Electricity Authority,

These questions are asked of the Electricity Authority in its role as the Regulator for the Electricity Industry (Levy of Industry Participants) Regulations 2010.
Question 1: What was the total values of levies collected in the last 5 years?
Question 2: For each of the five years what proportion (percent and dollars) of the collected levies were spent on operation and improvement of the ‘demand site installations’ (ie that was not spent on generation, the electricity market, transmission, distribution and the EEA)?
Question 3: Can the KWH rate be broken down to the individual cost percentages to make up the consumer rate (Mid-June 2025 western bay of plenty, Distributor. Horizons. Controlled, Powershop controlled ) as advertised of 32.59c

Yours faithfully,

Peter MacMillan
