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.

STPASA - Forecast Minimum System Load 1 (MSL1) in the VIC Region on 12/10/2024

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

AEMO has detected that there is an elevated risk of insufficient demand to maintain a secure operating state in the Victorian region from 1200 hrs 12/10/2024 to 1400 hrs 12/10/2024.

Minimum regional demand is forecast to be 1646 MW at 1300 hrs, and the advisory threshold is:

o MSL1 - 1815 MW
o MSL2 - 1315 MW
o MSL3 - 815 MW

MSL events are forecast when forecast regional demand is less than the relevant MSL threshold. The forecast regional demand is below the MSL1 threshold.
