A scenario requiring real options analysis
ā¢ You are seeking to upgrade
deteriorating transmission lines
ā¢ You need to determine the appropriate
capacity of the lines to account for
potential future loads
ā¢ A large industrial load has expressed
interest in locating on the line in the
future but the outlook remains
uncertain
3
Option 1
Do not build sufficient capacity
Risk of unrealised benefits
or inefficient investment if
the load does eventuate
Option 2
Build sufficient capacity
Risk of stranded asset if
the load does not
eventuate
Option 3
Staged investment
Reach the optimal trade-
off by making smaller
investment in the short
term to create flexibility
Evaluated using real options
analysis

What is real options analysis?
ā¢ Real options analysis is a way of quantifying the costs and
benefits of staged investments by considering future investment
decisions based on future information
ā¢ āOption valueā is the additional benefit arising from optimised
future decisions
ā¢ Option value arises when:
1. significant uncertainty exists regarding the future and the value of the
investment
2. investment decisions can be staged over time
3. future information will become available that will affect the
investment decision
4. this information can be reacted to in a timely manner
ā¢ The nature of the analysis can vary substantially depending on
the context

Real options analysis and the RIT-T
ā¢ āOption valueā was added to the RIT-T in 2009
āŗ AEMC considered that consideration of option value: āMay
facilitate a more strategic view of projectsā
ā¢ Option value has not been fully considered in any
RIT-T undertaken to date
ā¢ Reasons for this include:
āŗ not applicable to all investment decisions
āŗ implementation challenges, ie, modelling complexity

Timing and trigger assumptions
ā¢ Initial investment decisions are assumed to be made in 2018
ā¢ New information on trigger variables is available at two points in time ā in 2023 and
2028
ā¢ Substation works to upgrade from 132kV to 275kV take 2 years and upgrades can
only occur in response to information available in 2023 and 2028
ā¢ Trigger variables were:
āŗ Mining load ā whether a mining load greater than 50MW seeks connection to the
network
āŗ SA-specific renewables policy ā eg, whether the Eyre Peninsula is designated as a
ārenewables precinctā and transmission capacity expansion is mandated
ā¢ A mining load connects two years after a signed connection agreement and
therefore, aligns with upgrade timing

Tips for applying real options analysis to network
investments
11
Develop decision rules
or investment triggers
Adjust numbers of
decision points to
control complexity
Be aware of interactions
with other modelling
Segment the investment
decision into clear
discrete decisions
Develop decision rules or investment triggers to reduce
analysis complexity, eg, the network would need be
expanded if a new load eventuates
Often option value analysis requires inputs from other
complex modelling and so consider simplifying
assumptions where possible, eg, consider less granular
wholesale market modelling
The complexity of the modelling increases exponentially
with the number of decision points, and so this is one of
the key levers for controlling complexity
Clearly defining discrete investment stages and feasible
staging options ensures that the analysis remains
tractable
Decide if real options
analysis is the right
approach
Option value is not always relevant or significant so use
āback of the envelopeā type analysis to identify whether
option value is material
