This email is to inform you that Energy Queensland Limited 'EQL' aim to release an ‘Expression of Interest/Request for information for ‘Metering and/or Billing Solution for Energy Queensland’s First Nation communities” within the several weeks; approximately early to mid-May 2025.

Some further brief information on this RFI below and full RFI details will be provided at RFI release.


Background

Within the Ergon Energy Network there are approximately 5,300 customer premises across 32 remote and isolated First Nations Communities in far North Queensland that utilise a pre-paid Card Operated Metering solution as a means of effectively managing their electricity consumption and associated energy costs. There are also approximately 1,500 customer premises that utilise a combination of either Basic or Type 4 accumulation metering across these communities, predominantly for business customers. Most of these communities are located in Ergon Energy Network’s isolated areas and are supplied their electricity from the remote generation network which is not connected to the National Electricity Market (NEM), with approximately 550 customer premises located in 3 communities that are supplied electricity from the NEM.

Energy Queensland Limited ‘EQL” is currently undertaking a market scan to explore the full range of options in the market place that offer metering and billing solutions that meets the needs and requirements of the above mentioned First Nations Communities.


Objectives

EQL wishes to see market response that could provide a potential Metering and billing solution that would satisfy the needs of these First Nation Communities.

Innovative and effective solutions may also have a broader application across EQL’s customer base.

Thus this RFI is a market sounding activity only. The objective is to gain a better understanding of the current supply market and levels of interest in this procurement activity.

This RFI does not form part of the procurement activity and will not include any element of supplier selection, evaluation or contract award.

Should a procurement tender follow, those parties who participated in this market sounding/ RFI will be invited to participate in which supplier selection, evaluation and contract award will occur.


Conclusion

In summary EQL aims to go release an RFI approximately mid May 2025 to seek interested parties and inform itself better on potential market offerings.
