2 x Loy Yang A units offline this afternoon

Coincident with the bigger story about forecast Load Shedding for later this week, and next, we noticed that two Loy Yang A units (units 1 and 2) came offline this afternoon between 14:25 and 15:05 in what would appear to be sequential trips for unknown reasons.

As can be seen here in this snapshot from ez2view at 22:45, unit 1 has already returned to service – and we presume that this might be followed by unit 2 (unless it is damaged in some way).

The bid data (available from 04:00 tomorrow) might reveal more but, for now, all we have is conjecture and rumour…
