Market Notices

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE.

AEMO has identified that a non-credible contingency event impacting the power system is more likely to occur and is considered reasonably possible because of the existence of widespread abnormal conditions namely severe weather in the SA region.

AEMO has therefore reclassified the occurrence of a non-credible contingency event involving multiple plant due to these abnormal conditions as credible.

AEMO has taken the following action to maintain power system security at 2120 hrs 06/07/2024.

Constraint set invoked: I-VS_250

Duration: 2120 hrs 06/07/2024 until further notice

Need for further measures is being monitored and further measures may be implemented in line with the Power System Security Guidelines (SO_OP_3715).

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Issued by Australian Energy Market Operator Ltd at 1730 hrs on 3 July 2024

ACTUAL NEGATIVE SETTLEMENT RESIDUES - NSW to VIC - 3 July 2024.

Electricity Market outcomes have resulted in the accumulation of negative settlement residues that have exceeded the allowable negative residue threshold for the NSW to VIC directional interconnector.

The negative residue constraint set NRM_NSW1_VIC1 commenced operating from 1730 hrs on 3 July 2024.

This constraint set contains an equation with the following interconnectors on the LHS:
VIC1-NSW1

The RHS of the constraint equation may be adjusted to manage residues.

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

From 1 July 2024 AEMO will dispatch R1 and L1 FCAS locally in the SA region during conditions of actual islanding of the SA region.

This follows the end of contracts for Fast Frequency Response (FFR) in the SA region.

The dispatch of R1 and L1 FCAS under these island conditions will not be capped.

These changes are only applicable for conditions of actual SA islanding from the rest of the NEM.

No other changes to the dispatch of R1 and L1 FCAS will be made on this date.

For information on the Fast Frequency Response (FFR) initiative please visit the website at: https://www.aemo.com.au/initiatives/major-programs/fast-frequency-response
