  • Alinta Energy with the Opportunity to Provide Comment on the WEM Effectiveness Report Issues Paper
    16 December 2019 Transmission via online submission form: https://www.erawa.com.au/consultation Report to the Minister for Energy on the Effectiveness of the Wholesale Electricity Market 2019 Issues paper Thank you for providing Alinta Energy with the opportunity to provide comment on the WEM effectiveness report issues paper. The ERA has identified that the reform process is addressing many of the elements raised in previous WEM effectiveness reports. However, the ERA has highlighted an issue that does not appear to be within the reform scope, specifically the impact that network decisions can have in influencing outcomes in the WEM (and the resultant impacts on market cost optimisation). Alinta Energy supports a mechanism to ensure that network outage planning chooses the overall least cost plan Western Australia is an attractive market for renewables investment given the abundance of natural resources and the market design characteristics. However, significant support and industry leadership was required to allow new renewable generators to connect to the network in a timely manner under the interim access solution (known as the Generator Interim Access or GIA). The underlying principle of the GIA solution is that it applies constraints to limit the output of a GIA generator when network capacity is limited. This includes: • A dynamic (real-time) assessment and application of constraints during system normal; and • Manual assessment and application of constraints in other circumstances (i.e. when there is a planned outage on any network element that impacts the GIA generator). Badgingarra Wind Farm (BWF)1 is the first GIA generator in commercial operation on SWIS.

  • Energy Transition Initiative Announcement
    Embargoed until 12.01am, Monday 27 July, 2020 Media release Industry heavyweights come together to forge pathways towards a decarbonised future Some of Australian industry’s biggest companies are supporting a new initiative that will see them work together to better understand pathways to achieving net zero emissions in supply chains. BHP, Woodside, BlueScope Steel, BP Australia, Orica, APA Group and Australia Gas Infrastructure Group – which together represent 13.6 per cent of Australian industrial emissions – have signed on to the Australian Industry Energy Transitions Initiative. They are joined by National Australia Bank, Schneider Electric and Australian Super, who represent the broader system of investments, services, products and knowledge that will be key to supporting industry action towards net-zero supply chains. Independent, not-for-profit bodies ClimateWorks Australia and Climate-KIC Australia are conveners of the Australian Industry ETI, in collaboration with the Energy Transitions Commission. It has been developed with the generous support of philanthropic donations, company contributions and funding from the Australian Government, through the Australian Renewable Energy Agency. It is supported by the Australian Industry Group and the Australian Industry Greenhouse Network, with research partners including CSIRO and the Rocky Mountain Institute. The initiative aims to set Australian industry up for a success in a decarbonised global economy, by harnessing industry knowledge to develop pathways and actions that can accelerate emissions reductions across whole supply chains – in sectors where abatement has traditionally faced structural challenges. Specifically, it will focus on opportunities across five supply chains which collectively contribute more than a quarter of Australia’s annual greenhouse gas emissions and generate exports worth around $160 billion.

The AEMC appointed consultants to develop a long-term generation expansion plan for meeting the LRET. Consequently, the ‘core’ scenarios for the portfolio and geographic distribution of technologies have been determined. ROAM Consulting was subsequently appointed to utilise these scenarios to forecast the cost of Frequency Control Ancillary Services (FCAS), Network Support and Control Ancillary Services (NSCAS) and transmission augmentation associated with the LRET for the National Electricity Market (NEM) and the South West Interconnected System (SWIS).
