Direction - SA Region 23/07/2021
Direction - SA region 23/07/2021
In accordance with section 116 of the National Electricity Law, AEMO has issued a direction to a participant in the SA region. For the purposes of the National Electricity Rules this is a direction under clause 4.8.9(a).
The direction was necessary to maintain the power system in a secure operating state.
AEMO may issue or revoke additional directions in order to meet the current requirement, unless sufficient market response is provided. A further market notice will be issued when all directions related to this requirement have been cancelled.
The issue of the direction commences an AEMO intervention event. AEMO declares all dispatch intervals during the event to be intervention dispatch intervals, commencing from the interval ending 1605 hrs on 23/07/2021.
Intervention pricing does not apply to this AEMO intervention event.

CHG0067492 - Fault Remediation
Notification issued to: Market Notice
Notification Type: Initial
Change Type: Normal
Service/ Component: EMMS - Dispatch
Change Title: Fault Remediation
Change Start Date & Time: 23/07/2021 15:00:00 AEST
Change End Date & Time: 23/07/2021 16:00:00 AEST

Change Description:
Fault Remediation
Environment: Production
Participant Impact and Requirements:
Participants are advised that AEMO has discovered an error in the formulation for 5-minute pre-dispatch (5MPD) scenarios. The scenario offsets that were intended to be applied at the start of each 5MPD scenario have instead been applied cumulatively to each interval over the forecast horizon. AEMO will cease publishing 5MPD scenarios until this error is remedied.
AEMO is currently remediating this as a priority, but the necessary re-certification of the NEMDE formulation and software, followed by a period in pre-production, means that 5MPD scenarios are unlikely to be restored to production for several weeks. AEMO apologises for this inconvenience.
Publication of the 5MPD base case, including fast start inflexibility profiles, is unaffected by this change.
Support Information:
Report any impacts to the AEMO Information and Support Hub or on External 1300 236 600.

The synchronous generating units currently expected to be synchronised in SA from 0030 hrs 24/07/2021 to 0400 hrs 25/07/2021 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 1600 hrs 23/07/2021, 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.
