Constraint Invocation to manage power system security in SA Region

In order to maintain sufficient fault levels in SA and hence a secure operating state, the following constraint set was invoked at 1500hrs which operates in both Dispatch and Pre-Dispatch:
S_WIND_1200_AUTO

This constraint equation automates the process of applying the 1200 MW limit on the wind farms. If there is enough synchronous generation online it will be "swamped" out by adding 10000 to the right-hand side, otherwise the 1200 MW limit will be applied.

Change to FCAS Regulation constraint equations for managing time error

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Change to FCAS Regulation constraint equations for managing time error

AEMO is changing the way the FCAS constraint equations work for automatically increasing the regulation when the time error exceeds 1.5s in the Mainland. Currently the regulation is required from all NEM regions when there is a Mainland (NSW, Qld, SA and Victoria) time error.

The change to be made is to set the FCAS regulation requirements for Mainland regions only when there is a Mainland time error exceedance.

The FCAS requirements from all NEM regions of 120 MW lower regulation and 130 MW raise regulation has not changed.

The calculation for the regulation is detailed in SO_OP3715, section 19.

This change will take effect at 1700 hrs on 25 October 2016.

Updates to Victorian system normal stability constraint equations

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

The Victorian system normal constraint equations that determine Victorian export limits based on transient stability and voltage stability at Heywood for Victoria to South Australia flows will be updated to a revised formulation on 25 July 2016 after 1330 hrs. This revised formulation models the effects of higher flows on Victoria to SA on Heywood and the new series capacitors at Black Range.

The changes are to the following constraint equations :
V::N_NIL_V1
V::N_NIL_V2
V::N_NIL_Q1
V::N_NIL_Q2
V::N_NIL_S1
V::N_NIL_S2
V::N_NIL_SD
V^S_HYCP
