RAB Irrigation Price Review
Sunwater will submit a proposal to QCA for consideration of a regulated asset base methodology for renewals recovery.
Overview
In mid-2025, the Queensland Government set irrigation prices for 2025-26 and 2026-27. However, it postponed setting prices for 2027-28 and 2028-29 while it further considered a regulated asset base (RAB) methodology for renewals recovery. A review into RAB has now begun.
Sunwater will submit a proposal to QCA in February 2026. This will inform irrigation prices for the period from 1 July 2027 to 30 June 2029.

Survey
We’re asking irrigation customers to share their views on timeframe options for closing annuity balances if a RAB approach is adopted. To make sure have the information you need to respond to this survey with confidence and understand how the RAB approach may impact pricing, we have prepared an Irrigation Customer Invoice Calculator relevant to specific tariff groups in service contracts.
