AEMO’s 2024 System Strength Review

Each year, AEMO assesses and publishes the regional requirements for system strength to allow subsequent delivery and maintenance by the System Strength Service Providers (SSSPs) in each region. The 2024 system strength report provides an assessment of system strength requirements over the 10-year period from December 2024 to December 2034 inclusive. This presentation will give an overview of system strength, recent framework changes, system strength requirements, emerging shortfalls regionally and impacts on Transmission Network Service Providers.
