Directions to VIC Generators – 16 November 2018 to 27 November 2018

Between 16 and 18 November 2018, and 24 and 27 November 2018, AEMO issued four directions to Victorian Market Participants to maintain power system security. The directions in Victoria were to manage post-contingent voltage violations. 

Where the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) intervenes in the National Electricity Market (NEM) through the use of directions, AEMO must publish a report in accordance with National Electricity Rules (NER) clauses 4.8.9(f) and 3.13.6A.

The NEM Event report below satisfies those NER obligations and is based on information available to AEMO at the time of publication:
