July 2025 - Reforms to the Default Market Offer consultation

EWOs were provided an opportunity to comment on the federal government’s review to evaluate the effectiveness of the current Default Market Offer (DMO) framework in achieving its objectives of protecting customers from unreasonably high prices. We supported a joint response with EWON and EWOSA to the Department of Climate Change, Energy, Environment and Water welcoming consideration of a tariff based DMO being simpler to understand and support more intuitive market comparisons for consumers and the extension of a similar price cap protections to Embedded Network customers.
