The multi-region islanding event on Saturday 25th August was a very rare event – perhaps the only one’s that occurred in the history of the NEM. It has generated plenty of questions – and driven our analysis further. We share some more observations here, and keenly await the draft AEMO report.
As something we might refer back to later, here’s a 4-hour trend of NEM Mainland Grid Frequency on Sunday 12th October 2025 – from 09:00 to 13:00 (NEM time).
Prior to the Brisbane session of the Nelson Review Panel (on Thu 29th May 2025) we take a look at Dispatch Error in the 16:15 dispatch interval on Monday 26th May 2025 to see who supported frequency, and who drove it the wrong direction (outside of the NOFB).
