With renewable generation now supplying 40% of electricity into east coast homes & businesses the 2024 ESOO highlights that expected investments in new generation, storage & transmission must be delivered on time & in full to maintain reliable electricity. bit.ly/473fs5u
Australia’s power system are already capable of harnessing world leading levels of renewable energy. These two reports continue @AEMO_Energy’s journey to identify and eliminate technical constraints so that Australian homes and business can harness even more into the future.
AEMO has released 2 engineering reports outlining Australia’s required steps to operate our electricity grids with higher renewable energy contributions.

AEMO's published the 2024 Integrated System Plan, a roadmap for the #energytransition. It includes an optimal pathway of generation, storage & transmission investments needed to meet consumers' energy needs as we transition to a #netzeroeconomy by 2050. bit.ly/45K0ocn
AEMO has published the draft Integrated System Plan, showing that the lowest‐cost pathway for secure & reliable electricity is from renewables, connected by transmission, supported by batteries, pumped hydro & backed-up by gas. I encourage you to read it: bit.ly/3RpuzyJ

On Sunday, the National Electricity Market hit a new minimum operational demand record (11,224 MW, down 169 MW), with #rooftopsolar supplying 51% of total demand. Records were also broken in QLD & SA, with rooftop solar meeting 99.7% of total demand in SA from 1pm to 1:30pm.

Yesterday, the National Electricity Market set a record low demand of 11,393 MW at 12.30pm, a 4.2% fall from the previous record set last spring (Nov 2022). At the time, rooftop and grid-scale solar contributed 57% of total electricity supply in the NEM.
