Higher rooftop solar contributions observed during the quarter could have led to a new minimum demand record of 538 MW on 22 September 2024, but battery withdrawals helped push operational demand to 680 MW.

The body tasked with keeping the lights on across Australia''s largest power grids, is calling for "emergency backstop" powers to turn down, or off, rooftop solar systems in extreme situations.
The AEMO has signaled that grid-scale solar generated an average of over 1.4GW in Q2 2024, a 132MW increase year-on-year. must introduce a new ''emergency backstop'' mechanism to manage the

AEMO has confirmed that demand in South Australia and Victoria hit a historic low, as solar PV achieves winter record levels on NEM and SWIS. rooftop solar PV contributed 37.9% of the
Operational demand refers to consumer demand that can be met by generation from the grid.Minimum operational demand is the lowest level of demand met by generation from the grid, which is usually driven by
In May, AEMO published its final report on the SA separation, ''Trip of South East – Tailem Bend 275 kV lines on 12 November 2022'', which highlighted that for the 517 MW of rooftop solar capacity installed after the cut-off regulations, only 25%-42% were observed to respond as required in this event, while there was an 80% response of
The Australian Energy Market Operator''s (AEMOs) new and first national electricity market (NEM) transition to a renewables system security plan is future proofing the grid well ahead of a time when rooftop solar could potentially meet 100% of NEM demand.. Set as a goal between 2030 and 2035 in the inaugural Transition Plan for System Security, the 100%

It is time to bring this insane rooftop solar experiment to an end. It clearly isn''t working, given the energy grid operator has suggested deliberately sabotaging grid voltage might be an acceptable emergency protocol to disconnect rooftop solar from the grid.
It uses the following inputs to produce aggregated regional solar generation forecasts for small-scale PV systems: Numerical Weather Prediction data from multiple weather data providers. Output measurements from selected household rooftop
In fact, the excess electricity from millions of rooftop solar systems has, at. times, met more than 70% of total demand in Western Australia''s. Wholesale Electricity Market (WEM) and half of total demand across the. east coast''s National Electricity Market (NEM). At certain times, if high rooftop solar contributions coincide with issues on

(ABC News: Rhiannon Shine) The Australian Energy Market Operator wants "emergency backstop" powers to switch off or turn down rooftop solar systems in every state. AEMO says the powers are needed by next year for extreme situations as it grapples with ever-increasing amounts of rooftop solar output.
AEMO Future Energy Systems Group Manager Chris Davies said that the ‘improving security frameworks for the energy transition’ rule change intends to build on existing system security frameworks to help AEMO plan for a secure transition to a low emissions power system.
AEMO said that rooftop solar is already supplying more than half of the nation’s electricity demand at times, and this is projected to grow to about 90% in the next few years. This growth has introduced challenges of grid instability during low-demand periods and AEMO said that actions must be taken to maintain the supply and demand balance.
