Minimum System Load 1 (MSL1) in the VIC Region on 27/09/2024

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 1300 hrs 27/09/2024 to 1330 hrs 27/09/2024.

Minimum regional demand is forecast to be 1879 MW at 1330 hrs, and the advisory threshold is:
o MSL1 - 1915 MW
o MSL2 - 1415 MW
o MSL3 - 915 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.

Refer to NEM Data Dashboard to monitor demand levels: https://aemo.com.au/energy-systems/electricity/national-electricity-market-nem/data-nem/data-dashboard-nem

AEMO is seeking a market response.

An insufficient market response may require AEMO to take action or intervene to maintain power system security in Victoria. This may result in action such as the direction of scheduled production units, curtailment of non-scheduled production units, and/or a direction to maintain regional demand above required MSL threshold, in both Victoria and South Australia.

Update to system normal constraint equation in NSW for transient voltage stability in south-west NSW

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Refer to market notice 92840.

Transgrid has advised AEMO of an update to the transient voltage stability limit in south-west NSW for loss of Darlington Point to Wagga (63) 330 kV line. The limit will include terms for the Darlington Point and Riverina BESS.

The following constraint equation will be updated with the above changes at 1100 hrs Friday 20th September 2024.
N::N_NIL_63

For full details on the formulation, the new constraint equation has now been loaded into AEMO's pre-production systems.

For further details on these constraint equation please contact ben.blake@aemo.com.au
