On 20 May 2025, the ACCC issued a final determination granting authorisation to enable the City of Onkaparinga, City of Holdfast Bay, City of West Torrens, City of Salisbury, Town of Gawler and City of Port Adelaide Enfield to form a joint renewable electricity buying group in which they pool their electricity demand and conduct a joint procurement and negotiation process for the supply of electricity and renewable energy certificates from renewable energy generators or providers.
The ACCC considers that the conduct is likely to result in a public benefit and that this public benefit would outweigh any likely public detriment.
The ACCC has decided to grant authorisation until 11 June 2037.
Further information is available on the ACCC’s public register at City of Onkaparinga and Ors.
