Here we will collate articles (as we publish them, and remember to collate them in here) that relate to various aspects of the role of transmission in the energy transition .
Areas of interest include:
1) Design and construction
2) Operations
3) Outage planning and operations
4) Failure modes and rates
5) How to model transmission.
An article today referencing the VEPC paper 'No longer lost in transmission' (about extended VNI-West, and the authors proposed alternative 'Plan B') and the AEMO's initial response.
In light of recent events, Dan Lee does some digging to find historical incidences of islandings and transmission tower failures.
Also today (Thursday 10th November 2022) the ESB has released a Directions Paper on Transmission Access Reform - including suggestions for both Investment Timeframe and Operational Timeframe.
