Yesterday (Wed 18th Oct 2023) Origin Energy held its Annual General Meeting, with discussion wide-ranging. Here’s two things that jumped out to me about the Eraring Power Station, which is currently slated to close in 2025.
Yesterday we posted ‘All 6 coal units at Gladstone coincidentally out on unplanned outage this coming week?’. Two readers noted in comments about Industrial Action for the station this week, so we take a closer look …. (incl the AEMO forecast LOR conditions for QLD + VIC and SA this week)
With all 6 x Gladstone units expected to be offline by the end of the day due to Industrial Action, very timely that AEMO MN124047 notifies the market that ‘The system normal equations have been revised to remove Gladstone >=1 requirement’
Eraring unit 2 came offline prior to 21:46 NEM time on Sunday evening 8th December 2024 as captured in this alert triggered by the ‘Notifications’ widget in ez2view at the time. Here we take a quick look.
