Participant File Servers

About file servers

AEMO Australian Energy Market Operator’s MarketNet AEMO's private VPN for Registered Participants. A network of more than 300 registered participants in the National Electricity Market, including market generators, transmission network service providers, distribution network service providers, and market customers. provides access to folders for batch file transfer between AEMO and participant IDs.

Each energy market system has a file server, and each has production (live data) and pre-production (test data) folders. Each participant ID has secure read-write access to their own set of folders, plus read-only access to commonly-shared folders that contain public data.

The private folders are for secure transfer of data between the participant ID systems and AEMO (such as bidding and settlement invoices). For the IP addresses, see File-based interface URLs.

Participants require the file interface for:

  • Receiving dispatch data.
  • Participants needing an on-going data feed of 5-minute public data, such as, traders.
