Public Policy OfficesNew South Wales, Australia51-200 Employees
The Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) functions as a public policy body that advises governments on energy market development and acts as the rule maker for Australia's electricity and gas sectors. It pursues a long-term perspective to ensure consumers receive reliable, secure energy services at the best price, and it designs and oversees rules that shape wholesale generation, retail activity, and the regulation of electricity transmission and distribution as well as gas pipelines. Stakeholder input is central to its work, with industry participants and other parties contributing to rulemaking and policy advice. Headquartered in Sydney, New South Wales, the AEMC serves a broad spectrum of energy market participants, including consumers, generators, retailers, and network operators, by guiding policy and regulatory decisions. In March 2026, it launched an initiative to incentivise large users to shift energy demand to daytime hours, reflecting its ongoing efforts to influence market design and demand management.
