Actual LOR2 South Australia Region - 16 Sept 16

AEMO ELECTRICITY MARKET NOTICE

Actual LOR2 South Australia Region - 16 Sept 16
Refer AEMO Electricity Market Notice 54865
An actual LOR2 condition has been declared for the South Australia region from 0700 hrs and is forecast to continue until 1700 hrs during a planned outage of Moorabool - Mortlake 500 kV line in the Victoria region.

If a credible contingency event occurs in this period the South Australia region would separate from the rest of the NEM and is likely to result in interruptions to power supplies.

There are sufficient capacity reserves in the South Australia region to meet electricity demand but it may not be possible to bring the required additional capacity into service in time to avoid automatic under-frequency load shedding causing power interruptions.
