Managing outages that create a credible risk of SA islanding

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

From 9th Oct 2024 AEMO will change constraints used during outages that create a credible risk of SA islanding.

From this date AEMO will:

1) Increase the maximum allowable flow on the V-SA interconnector from 50 MW to 250 MW in the VIC to SA direction, where the transmission outages is a planned outage.

2) Operate the SA region to the default 49-51 Hz target frequency containment band following a contingency event resulting in actual SA islanding. In order to meet this requirement, AEMO may now procure Contingency Raise FCAS locally from the SA region during these outages.

These changes reflect updated advice received by AEMO from the SA Jurisdictional System Security Coordinator.

The first network outage affected by this change is planned for 14th October 2024.

Planned outage of Tailem Bend - South East 275 kV transmission line in the South Australia region beginning on 20/09/2024

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

The Tailem Bend - South East No 1 275 kV line in the South Australian (SA) region is planned to be out of service from 2100 hrs on 20/09/2024 to 0530 hrs on 21/09/2024.

A credible contingency event during this planned outage could cause synchronous separation of the SA region from the rest of the NEM.

During this planned outage:
- Power transfer will be restricted across the VIC - SA interconnector (Heywood interconnector); and
- Post contingent FCAS will be sourced within SA following Separation event.

Refer AEMO Network Outage Schedule (NOS) for further details.
