Developing our future plans for the South Australian network - July 2026 to June 2031
We are a critical part of the energy supply chain here in South Australia by delivering natural gas to more than 480,000 homes and businesses through the Australian Gas Networks distribution network. Through an extensive engagement process with stakeholders and our customers, we have been developing our plans for the 2026/27 – 2030/31 Access Arrangement (AA) period, setting out how we plan to invest in our South Australian networks to deliver for our current and future customers.
We submitted our Final Plan for the five-year period from 1 July 2026 - 30 June 2031 to the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) on 1 July 2025.
Some key highlights from our Final Plan are:
Prices will fall by 1.0% (after inflation) from July 2026, in line with consistent feedback from customers advising us that pricing and affordability is their number one priority,
We remain committed to maintaining a high level of safety and reliability,
We will maintain our strong track record of excellent customer service, and
We will continue to invest in a sustainable energy future.
On this page, you will find links to information that we have prepared throughout our engagement process to develop our Final Plan, including:
- Customer workshop materials,
- SA Reference Group meeting materials and summaries, and
- Independent reports on our customer engagement by KPMG.
In order to increase the breadth and depth of engagement during this process, we also partnered with Orbviz to present the information in our documents in an interactive way, allowing our stakeholders and customers to choose which topics they wanted to spend more time understanding, as well as how deeply they wanted to understand them.

Next steps:
The AER will consider our Final Plan and make a Draft Decision on our proposals.
We will respond to the Draft Decision and make refinements to our proposals where required.
The AER will publish its Final Decision before the next AA period commences.
