sec.64I Deemed large customer retail arrangement for new or continuing customer without assigned retailer’s large customer standard retail contract

This section applies to energised premises for which an assigned retailer is the financially responsible retailer. An arrangement (a deemed large customer retail arrangement ) is taken to apply between the assigned retailer and a move-in large customer. The deemed large customer retail arrangement comes into operation when the move-in large customer starts consuming energy at the premises. The deemed large customer retail arrangement ceases to be in operation if— the assigned retailer’s large customer standard retail contract is formed for the premises; or the move-in large customer enters into a contract or other arrangement for the sale of electricity to the premises with an entity other than the assigned retailer. Subsection (2) does not apply if the customer consumes energy at the premises by fraudulent or illegal means. Subsection (4) does not affect any rights or obligations that have already accrued under the deemed large customer retail arrangement. If the customer consumes energy at the premises by fraudulent or illegal means— the customer is nevertheless liable to pay the assigned retailer’s notified prices for the premises in respect of the energy so consumed; and the assigned retailer may estimate and issue a bill for the charges payable and recover those charges in accordance with those notified prices as a debt in a court of competent jurisdiction; and payment or recovery of any such charges is not a defence to an offence relating to obtaining energy by fraudulent or illegal means. A move-in large customer is required to contact the assigned retailer and take appropriate steps to enter into the retailer’s large customer standard retail contract as soon as practicable. In this section— move-in large customer means a large customer who starts consuming energy at the premises without first applying to the assigned retailer for the provision of customer retail services. s 64I ins 2014 No. 49 (Qld) s 4 sch s 20 (sec.64I-ssec.1) This section applies to energised premises for which an assigned retailer is the financially responsible retailer.
