Updated Victorian system normal voltage stability limit for the south-west Victoria
Refer to Market Notice 101368
AEMO has completed a review of the system normal voltage stability limit in the south-west Victoria as a result of Mortlake terminal station cut-in on the Haunted Gully to Tarrone 500 kV line.
The revised limit is increased by 100 MW on the cut-set from Haunted Gully to Moorabool and Mortlake to Moorabool 500 kV lines for flow towards Moorabool.
Full details on the limits advice are to be published shortly on the AEMO website: https://www.aemo.com.au/energy-systems/electricity/national-electricity-market-nem/system-operations/congestion-information-resource/limits-advice
The revised limit has been implemented at 1201 hrs on Tuesday 29th April 2025, by updating V^^V_NIL_SWVIC.

Update to Victorian system normal Kerang voltage stability limit
AEMO has completed a review of a system normal voltage stability limit in north west Victoria as a result of commissioning of BESS at Koorangie. The revised limit manages pre-contingent flow on the Wemen to Koorangie 220 kV line to avoid voltage collapse at Koorangie, Kerang or Wemen on loss of the Crowlands to Bulgana to Horsham or Horsham to Murra Warra to Kiamal 220 kV line. The revised constraint equation includes the generators in south-west NSW and north-west Victoria on the left-hand side as well as Murraylink and V-SA. Full details on the limits advice are to be published shortly on the AEMO website: https://www.aemo.com.au/energy-systems/electricity/national-electricity-market-nem/system-operations/congestion-information-resource/limits-advice
The revised limit will be implemented at 0900 hrs on Monday 31st March 2025, by updating V^^V_NIL_KGTS.
For full details on the factors this constraint equation has now been loaded into AEMO's pre-production systems.

Yass to Wagga control scheme change - removal system normal constraint equations in NSW managing 990, 991 and 970 132kV lines
Transgrid has advised AEMO of an update to the Yass overload trip scheme. The scheme is normally armed managing line flow on 990, 991, 970 132kV lines and it is now operating both directions of flow from Wagga to Yass.
Based on this advice, the following constraint equations will be removed from the NSW system normal constraint sets N-NIL and N-NIL_991, effective immediately.
N>>NIL_970_051
N>>NIL_990_051
N>>NIL_991_051
