Consumer Data Right (Energy Sector) Designation 2020
This legislative instrument designates the Australian energy sector under the Consumer Data Right (CDR) framework. It specifies the types of data, entities, and arrangements covered by CDR for energy consumers.
The Consumer Data Right (Energy Sector) Designation 2020 is a regulatory instrument made under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010, administered by the Department of the Treasury. It outlines provisions for the designation of Australia’s energy sector under the Consumer Data Right. The regulation specifies classes of information related to customers, electricity and natural gas transactions, retail arrangements, and defines data holders. The aim is to enhance consumer control over their data to promote competition and innovation within the energy market. Certain data categories deemed materially enhanced are excluded from this designation.
