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.

AEMO and Powerlink are continuing to investigate system strength requirements in North Queensland.
Due to commissioning of new feeder 8905 (H13 Ross - H39 Woree) 275kV line in Far North Queensland, the system normal system strength equations for low North Queensland demands and all Karreya stations out of service conditions have been revised.

A revision to the constraint equations will be implemented at 1400 hrs on Tuesday 20th February 2024.

The new system strength 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.

Below constraint equations in the Q-NIL set will be modified:

- Q_NIL_STRGTH_KBWF
- Q_NIL_STRGTH_KBWF_I
- Q_NIL_STRGTH_HAUSF
- Q_NIL_STRGTH_HAUSF_I
