AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Possible intervention to manage power system security in SA Region

The synchronous generating units currently expected to be synchronised in SA from 0930 hrs 09/12/2023 will be inadequate to maintain a secure operating state in SA.

AEMO may need to intervene by issuing a direction requiring one or more SA synchronous generating unit(s) to operate or remain synchronised to maintain power system security in SA.

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE.

AEMO has identified that a non-credible contingency event impacting the power system is more likely to occur and is considered reasonably possible because of the existence of widespread abnormal conditions namely severe weather in the SA region.

AEMO has therefore reclassified the occurrence of a non-credible contingency event involving multiple plant due to these abnormal conditions as credible.

AEMO has taken the following action to maintain power system security at 1050 hrs 08/12/2023.
Constraint set invoked: I-VS_250

Duration: 1050 hrs 08/12/2023. until further notice

Need for further measures is being monitored and further measures may be implemented in line with the Power System Security Guidelines (SO_OP_3715).
