Updated Victorian system normal voltage oscillation limit

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

AEMO has completed a comprehensive review on voltage oscillation issue in south-west Victoria with consideration of wider asynchronous generators in the area. The voltage oscillation occurs in the south-west region when Heywood interconnector flow is higher than 500 MW from South Australia to Victoria.

The limit will manage the total MW output from Stockyard Hill, Dundonnell and Macarthur wind farms during period when flow on Heywood interconnector higher than 500 MW towards Victoria.

The new constraint equation includes asynchronous generators in south-west Victoria on the left-hand side. This limit is to replace the existing south-west Victoria voltage oscillation limit. Full details on the limits advice are to be published shortly on the AEMO website: https://aemo.com.au/energy-systems/electricity/national-electricity-market-nem/system-operations/congestion-information-resource/limits-advice

The following changes will be implemented at 1000 hrs on Friday 3rd November 2023
? Constraint equation will be removed from constraint set V-NIL:
V_SHWF_FLT_286

? Constraint equation will be implemented and added to constraint set V-NIL:
V_SH_DD_MAC_FLT_965

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

For further details on this change please contact terry.liu@aemo.com.au

Update to voltage stability and system strength constraints 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 new feeder 8905 (H13 Ross - H39 Woree) 275kV line in Far North Queensland, the system normal equations for system strength and voltage stability have been revised.

A revision to the constraint equations will be implemented at 1400 hrs on Thursday 2nd November 2023.

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.

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

? Q_NIL_STRGTH_KBWF
? Q_NIL_STRGTH_KBWF
? Replace Q^NIL_FNQ_MEWF and Q^NIL_FNQ_WRSVC with new equation Q^NIL_FNQ_8905

Fast Frequency Response Market - Increase in R1 volume 6 November 2023 - Additional Constraint changes

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Refer to market notice 110645

Additional system normal contingency risks, including trip of APD load, potential operation of the GFT and TTS control schemes, and trip of Basslink will be included when determining FCAS requirements from 6th November. These constraint equations have been added to the constraint set F-I_FFR_GLOBAL_2 which is now invoked from 1300hrs on 6th November.

Fast Frequency Response Market - Increase in R1 volume 6 November 2023

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Following review of the operation of the Very Fast FCAS market, AEMO will increase the cap on dispatch of Very Fast Raise (R1) Contingency FCAS from 50 MW to 100 MW on Monday 6th November from 1300 hrs AEST.

The cap on Very Fast Lower (L1) Contingency FCAS will remain unchanged at 50 MW.

A range of additional system-normal contingency risks will also be considered considered when determining Very Fast FCAS requirements from this time.
