Earlier this week, we looked at the first round of AEMO modelled MT PASA results for the Project EnergyConnect, and had some questions. After some digging, we think we understand...
Following this morning's article, here's one more view (via ez2view) of PEC Stage 2 in the first MT PASA solutions run.
I was curious to see how the PEC Stage 2 (i.e. NSW1-SA1) is being represented in the new data sets now appearing in the MT PASA process. Hence this initial view, which prompts questions.
