Possible intervention to manage power system security in South Australia (SA) Region

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Possible intervention to manage power system security in South Australia (SA) Region

The synchronous generating units currently expected to be synchronised in SA from 0830 hrs 08/09/2021 to 1730 hrs 08/09/2021 will be inadequate to maintain sufficient system strength in SA and hence a secure operating state.

AEMO estimates that, in the absence of sufficient market response by 1800 hrs 07/09/2021, 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.

90261RESERVE NOTICE07/09/2021 01:56:34 PM

RESERVE NOTICE MT PASA PUBLICATION 07 September 2021

The MTPASA result published on 07 September 2021 identifies no Low Reserve Conditions.

Please note that MTPASA informs the market of potential reliability issues to allow the market to respond in the first instance, potentially avoiding the need for any market intervention or direction from AEMO.

For further information, please refer to:
https://www.aemo.com.au/Electricity/National-Electricity-Market-NEM/Data/Market-Management-System-MMS/Projected-Assessment-of-System-Adequacy

This notice supersedes Market Notice 90075 published on 31 August 2021.

Background
As part of a broader process of implementing the reliability standard, AEMO runs the Medium Term Projected Assessment of System Adequacy (MTPASA) process weekly to forecast expected unserved energy levels over a two year period. If the expected annual unserved energy exceeds the maximum level specified by the Reliability Standard, a Low Reserve Condition is identified.

For more information about how AEMO implements the reliability standard, please view the Reliability Standard Implementation Guidelines (RSIG) available on AEMO's website at

90260GENERAL NOTICE07/09/2021 10:33:59 AM

Update - Planned outage of Heywood No.1 500 kV busbar and Heywood - Tarrone 500 kV line in the Victoria region on 07, 08 and 10 September 2021

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Refer to MN 90257.

The Heywood No.1 500 kV busbar was previously scheduled to start at 0900 hrs on 08/09/2021. This outage is now scheduled to start at 0700 hrs.

The Heywood No.1 500 kV busbar and Heywood - Tarrone 500 kV line in the Victoria (VIC) region are planned to be out of service from:
- 0900 hrs to 2000 hrs on 07/09/2021;
- 0700 hrs to 2000 hrs on 08/09/2021; and
- 1600 hrs to 1800 hrs on 10/09/2021.

A credible contingency event during this planned outage could cause synchronous separation of the South Australia (SA) region from the rest of the NEM. If separation occurs, load may be interrupted due to the operation of the Automatic Under Frequency Load Shedding (AUFLS) scheme in SA.

The credible separation contingency is managed as follows:

- When power transfer is from SA to VIC, contingency lower FCAS will be sourced from SA.
- When power transfer is from VIC to SA, due to the 47-52Hz island separation frequency band advised by the SA jurisdiction, contingency raise FCAS is not sourced in SA and the AUFLS scheme may respond to low frequency events.
- Power transfer will be restricted on VIC - SA interconnector (Heywood interconnector) to manage system security following the loss of the next contingency.

Forecast capacity reserves in the SA region are currently sufficient to meet electricity demand during the planned outage.

The following constraint sets have been invoked for this outage:

V-HYTR
F-I-HYSE
S-X_BC_CP
V-HYTX_M12
V-HY_500BUS
I-VS_050

Refer AEMO Network Outage Schedule (NOS) for further details.
