Market Security Options Update
Genesis Energy confirms that a number of parties have registered formal expressions of interest in
respect of the Market Security Option (MSO) product offered to the market on 30 August. The
MSOs were designed to offer gentailers, retailers and major energy users a means to achieve greater
price stability and support security of supply for 2023 and 2024 through reserving Rankine capacity.
Looking ahead to 2023 and 2024, there remains the potential for increased price volatility in the
wholesale electricity market as the impact of unprecedented increases in international fuel prices
reaches New Zealand. Significant increases in the cost of carbon will exacerbate this issue. The level
of responses indicates other market participants share this concern.
Negotiations with the relevant parties to formalise agreements will now follow.
