The Reliability Panel will be holding a public forum for the Review of the Frequency operating standard 2022 on Friday 27 May between 9.30am and 11.30am (AEST). The issues paper and terms of reference have been published and stakeholders are encouraged to provide input. 

The FOS defines the range of allowable frequency for the power system under different conditions, including normal operation as well as after events that occur that can impact the power system.  

The review will examine the appropriateness of the settings in light of the ongoing energy market transformation, as conventional synchronous generation is progressively replaced by inverter-based technologies such as wind, solar and batteries.  

The Panel published an issues paper on 28 April 2022 and now seeks stakeholder input via a public forum.  

The agenda will encompass:  

  • An overview of the scope and objectives for the 2022 FOS review, including the key issues for consideration. 
  • A presentation by the Australian Energy Council (AEC) on industry views with respect to the review of the FOS 
  • A presentation by AEMO on their proposed approach to the provision of technical advice to the Panel. 
  • Opportunities for stakeholder Q&A. 

Please register your interest by completing the form below by COB Tuesday 24 May 2022.

Virtual seminar: Alternative approaches to congestion management

Start Time:
9:00 am AEST
End Time:
12:00 pm AEST
Convenor:
ESB
Register By:
23-Feb-2022
Reminder:

In its Post 2025 Market Design Review, the Energy Security Board recommended a congestion management model with REZ adaptations – the Congestion Management Model or CMM. The ESB subsequently established a process to work collaboratively with stakeholders to find solutions to the challenge of transmission access. As part of this process, the ESB published a project initiation document which gave stakeholders the opportunity to put forward alternative models.

The ESB received a strong response to its project initiation document. Submissions to the project initiation document can be found here.  The purpose of the upcoming seminar is to give stakeholders the opportunity to explore the features of the various alternative models put forward by stakeholders. The session will inform the evaluation of the alternative models, or elements of these alternative models.

This session will be a collaborative event led by the ESB’s appointed Independent Facilitator. To promote well informed discussion, stakeholders are invited to submit questions on the various models to info@esb.org.au by 17 February. Submitted questions will be provided to model proponents prior to the event.

A link to the forum and preparatory materials will be provided to registered stakeholders closer to the event date.

Virtual forum: Transmission access reform detailed design project initiation

Start Time:
9:45 am AEST
End Time:
10:30 am AEST
Convenor:
ESB
Register By:
24-Nov-2021
Reminder:

In its Post 2025 Market Design Review, the Energy Security Board recommended a congestion management model with REZ adaptations (or CMM). National Cabinet subsequently instructed the ESB to progress detailed design work on the CMM and to bring back a proposed rule change to Energy Ministers by the end of 2022.

Ministers have advised the ESB that the design process should include a comprehensive consultation process and should take into consideration value for money, providing locational signals, and ensuring sufficient flexibility for jurisdictional differences.

The Energy Security Board will be holding a virtual public forum to provide stakeholders with more clarity about the approach and process that we intend to use to give effect to National Cabinet's decision on transmission access reform. At this forum we will:

  • Describe our proposed process for engaging with stakeholders during the detailed design process
  • Provide information to assist parties who are developing, or have developed an alternative model that they would like us to consider
  • Answer questions on the process.

Those interested in attending are invited to register through the form below.

A link to the forum will be provided to registered stakeholders closer to the event date.
