On Monday evening 13th January we noted a short-notice ‘Actual LOR2’ in NSW. In this article we take a look at the VIC1-NSW1 interconnector, and particularly the impact of the ‘N::N_MNYS_2’ constraint equation, in limiting the ability of imports from the south to ameliorate.
At 17:49 (NEM time) on Monday 13th January 2025 the AEMO declared an ‘Actual LOR2’ … pretty much ‘out of the blue’.
Finding another use for the relatively recent addition of the ELAV data set for Semi-Scheduled units, we follow on from a RenewEconomy article (in Nov 2024) to trend the availability of the Murra Warra 1 Wind Farm.
Worth a short follow-on to say that the AEMO published MN122902 at 14:32 (NEM time) today noting the cancellation of the forecast LOR1 condition for NSW, as forecasts moderate.
In this article, we’re continuing to explore what happened to some Wind Farms in Victoria on Monday 16th December 2024 – which was a day of high temperatures, and on which many interesting things occurred. In this particular article, we focus on 4 x Wind Farms all in the same portfolio that exhibited some commonalities in output patterns and so on…
Whilst attempting not to fall down that particular rabbit hole, adding the two Frontier Economics reports to the ‘if I had more time here’s something I’d like to read in detail’ List.
The AEMO published ‘NEM Local Temperature Alert’ in MN122792 published at 11:12 (NEM time) on Friday 3rd January 2025.

A very short summary of New Years Eve 2024 … with more to come in subsequent articles (time permitting)
Adding one more to the ‘Xmas Reading List*’ was the AER in publishing its ‘Wholesale Electricity Market Performance Report 2024’ on Friday 20th December 2024.
Another for your Xmas Reading List? This one from the AEMC, in publishing its Final Determination last Thursday 19th December 2024 for the ‘Integrating price-responsive resources into the NEM’.
To assist readers in our ongoing review of possible high-temperature (or other) effects on Wind Farm output in Victoria on Monday 16th December 2024, here’s a map we’ve put together to help indicate the location of each of the Semi-Scheduled wind farms.
A short note to record AEMO MN122436 noting Local Temperature Alerts for SA, VIC on Wed 25th and Thu 26th December 2024
On Friday 20th December 2024 we saw the release of the Final Report from the Select Committee on Energy Planning and Regulation in Australia, which has been run by the Australian Senate in recent months

A short article to record the incidence of the ‘Actual MSL1’ event for the VIC region, which AEMO noted in MN122399 at 11:16 on Sunday 22nd December 2024
Worth noting MN122275 published at 15:51 on Thursday 19th December 2024 being what I believe might be the second-ever forecast for the tighter MSL2- level alert for the coming Sunday 22nd December 2024.
A short note to highlight that the alerting in ez2view has flagged that the (deferred) network outage (in the ‘N-X_AVMA_KCTX’ constraint set) commenced Wednesday morning 18th December 2024.
