It is located on Torrens Island between the old Quarantine Station and the Torrens Island Power Station. Built and Operated by Origin Energy since 2002 with an original installed capacity of 96 MW consisted of 4 Siemens SGT600 gas turbines at 24 MW each. Another 125 MW of General Electric heavy duty 9E gas turbine was added in 2009. The plant is operated and dispatched from Origins Monitoring and Support Centre in Brisbane, Queensland. It can also be operated from the site or hand held mobile devices such as an iPad. The site has 7 full time personnel consisting of Instrumentation/Control, Mechanical and Administration Support. Turbine engineering and project support are also based at the site and offer support across all generation assets. The technical tour will include an overview of the power station and Origins broader fleet, followed by a site tour.

A South Australia's Electricity and Gas Industries
A South Australia's Electricity and Gas Industries Both the electricity and gas industries in South Australia have undergone a range of significant reforms over the last fifteen years, commencing with the vertical disaggregation of the electricity and gas supply chains in the mid-1990s and culminating with the introduction of FRC for customers of all sizes during 2003-04. In the wake of FRC, gas and electricity retailing in South Australia has moved from a single host retailer model to a multiple retailer model. The remainder of this appendix provides both an historic perspective on the reforms that were undertaken in advance of the introduction of FRC and an overview of the current structure of energy retailing. A.1. Progression to FRC A.1.1. Electricity industry progression to FRC Between 1946 and 1995, the Electricity Trust of South Australia (ETSA) was responsible for undertaking all aspects of the electricity supply chain in South Australia including the generation, transmission, distribution and retail sale of electricity. On 1 July 1995, the Electricity Trust of South Australia was corporatised and became ETSA Corporation under the Public Corporations Act 1993. In January 1997 the South Australian Government undertook the first steps towards vertical disaggregation, by transferring ETSA’s generation assets to SA Generation Corporation. The second step toward vertical disaggregation occurred in October 1998 when the South Australian Government announced that, in order to meet its commitments under the Competition Principles Agreement and in preparation for entry into the NEM, ETSA Corporation and SA Generation Corporation would need to be further disaggregated.

2016 South Australian Blackout - Wikipedia 9/21/18, 9:06 AM
2016 South Australian blackout - Wikipedia 9/21/18, 9:06 AM 2016 South Australian blackout The South Australian blackout of 2016 was a widespread power outage in South Australia that occurred as a result of storm damage to electricity transmission infrastructure on 28 September 2016. The cascading failure of the electricity transmission network resulted in almost the entire state losing its electricity supply. Kangaroo Island did not lose its supply,[1] as the Kangaroo Island power station had been built to supply the island for the contingency of a failure in the power cable under the Backstairs Passage.[2] Contents Storms Power grid Blackout Restoration Consequences Immediate political responses Ensuing ﬂood December blackouts February blackouts See also References External links Storms On the day of the failure, South Australia experienced a violent storm reported as being a once-in-50-year event.[3] There was gale force and storm force wind across wide areas of the state. It included at least two tornadoes in the vicinity of Blyth,[4] which damaged multiple elements of critical infrastructure.[5] The state was hit by at least 80,000 lightning strikes.[6] The wind damaged a total of 23 pylons on electricity transmission lines, including damage on three of the four interconnectors connecting the Adelaide area to the north and west of the state.

SOUTHERN GAS PIPELINE - FULFILLING a NEED for TWO Fig
MINISTER’S STATEMENT he Bracks Labor Government was elected with a clear view of the importance of the energy and resources sector and the particular challenges that must be met if the industry is to continue to make a valuable Tcontribution to the wealth and wellbeing of all Victorians. Oil and gas make a significant contribution to the Victorian and the national economies. It has been a remarkable year for Victoria's petroleum industry since the last Victorian supplement was released. The outstanding record of success, with five back-to-back gas discoveries in the onshore Port Campbell region by Santos, was followed by the offshore successes at Thylacine-1 (just in Tasmanian waters) and Geographe-1 by the Origin consortium. Esso/BHP Billiton has also discovered gas at the East Pilchard-1 well in the Gippsland Basin. This year has been pivotal for the State. These new discoveries provide some real opportunities for significant changes in the southeastern Australian gas market structure. New potential markets and customers, both in Victoria and interstate, are developing, in turn leading to development projects and stimulating high exploration activity levels. The Bracks Government remains committed to its reform agenda in the oil and gas sector. The Pipelines Act General Discussion Paper has been released for comment on the objectives and purpose of regulation of the pipeline industry and on other specific issues. Encouragement of exploration and establishment of new sources of supply will ultimately enhance security of gas supply to Victoria. Victoria is also continuing to support responsible exploration and development of the industry through the Victorian Initiative for Minerals and Petroleum.
