Update - Possible intervention to manage power system security in South Australia (SA) Region
Update - Possible intervention to manage power system security in South Australia (SA) Region
Refer to AEMO Market Notice 82899.
The synchronous generating units expected to be synchronised in SA from 0900 hrs 21/02/2021 to 0400 hrs 22/02/2021 in Pre-dispatch published at 1500 hrs 20/02/2021 are inadequate to maintain sufficient system strength in SA and hence a secure operating state.
AEMO currently estimates that, in the absence of sufficient market response by 1800 hrs 20/02/2021, 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.
