At 1040 hrs the Sheffield - Palmerston 220kV line tripped at the Palmerston end only.

The cause of this non credible contingency event is not known at this stage.

AEMO is not satisfied that this non credible event is unlikely to re-occur.

AEMO has therefore reclassified this event as a credible contingency event until further notice.

Update to Victorian system normal constraint equations ID

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

AEMO has been conducting major review of thermal constraint equations for preparation of completion of VNI East project. As part of the review, AEMO is going to update the constraint equations IDs to use the new standard format of below (this is the same standard now used in NSW):

V>>[OUTAGE]_[MONITORING ELEMENT]_[CONTINGENCY ELEMENT]

This is to improve the simplicity and readability of a thermal constraint equation ID.

Constraint equations ID in sets V-NIL and V-NIL_BATS_BETS_15M will be updated to the new format on Thursday 23rd March 2023 at 1000 hrs. The previous used constraint equations ID will be included in the Modification field of the constraint equation for reference.

The changes have now been implemented into AEMO's pre-production system.

Updated NSW system normal voltage stability limit

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Refer to market notice 105936?

The Murraylink Very Fast Runback (VFRB) scheme was modified to increase the capacity of the network due to the increase in generation in the area. The scheme was changed so Murraylink VFRB could be activated / de-activated depending on the time of day on the monitored 220kV lines in north-west Victoria.?

Transgrid has advised AEMO on a revision to the X5 voltage collapse limit with this change to VFRB. This will now be managed by two limits.?

The following constraint equation changes will be implemented at 0900 hrs on Thursday 16th March 2023:
N^^N_NIL_X5_BEKG (replaces N^^N_NIL_3)
N^^N_NIL_X5_BESH (new)?

For full details on the factors on constraint equations and all the constraint equation changes - these have now been loaded into AEMO's pre-production systems.?

Update to system strength requirements in North Queensland

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Refer to market notice 102074

AEMO and Powerlink are continuing to investigate system strength requirements in North Queensland.
Due to commissioning of Kaban wind farm in Far North Queensland, the system normal equations have been revised to include following combinations.

-If Stanwell >=2, Stanwell + Calllide >=3, Gladstone >= 1, Stanwell + Callide + Gladstone >= 7, Kareeya >=0, Haughton Syncon status = ON/OFF, North Queensland load >=250 MW,
Ross+FNQ load >=100 MW, limit Kaban Windfarm to 100% (with Haughton Syncon ON), 0% (with Haughton Syncon Syncon OFF) and no limit to other NQLD Plants.

A revision to the constraint equations will be implemented at 1400 hrs on Wednesday 1st March 2023.

The new combinations have now published in a limits advice document on AEMO's website. For more information refer to the new limits advice: https://www.aemo.com.au/energy-systems/electricity/national-electricity-market-nem/system-operations/congestion-information-resource/limits-advice

This advice contains all the combinations for Queensland for system normal cases. Additional information has been included in the limit advice to clarify the requirement to disconnect all inverters/turbines under certain system conditions.

The constraint equation in the Q-NIL set of the form below will be modified:

Q_NIL_STRGTH_XXXX
Q_NIL_STRGTH_XXXX_I

Changes to Murraylink Very Fast Runback and constraints in Victoria

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

The Murraylink Very Fast Runback (VFRB) scheme is being modified to increase the capacity of the network due to the increase in generation in the area. The scheme will be changed so Murraylink VFRB can be activated / de-activated depending on the time of day on the monitored 220kV lines in north-west Victoria.

The changes to the scheme will be activated and constraint equaiton modified at 1200hrs Monday 20th February 2023. The following system normal constraint equations will be modified:
V^^V_NIL_KGTS
V^^V_NIL_KGTS_2
V>>SML_NIL_7A
V>>SML_NIL_7B
V>>SML_NIL_7C
V>>V_NIL_13
