VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining): I have been advised: Relevant agents are appointed by solar customers and have the ability to manage a customer's solar generation in an electricity supply emergency in response to a lawful direction to do so. We have observed a competitive market for relevant agent services, with numerous fee free services available. Many fee-based offerings include an external hardware device to monitor and control the solar generation and provide other services to help a consumer reduce their energy costs. Services may include monitoring as well as managing controlled loads and household appliances. Therefore, free and paid offers cannot be compared.
