(Summary description)According to Australian news network, Australian energy market operators warned that this summer's extreme weather forecast may reduce the reliability of power supply in Australia in the coming months, and aging coal-fired power plants are no longer so reliable. In August, the Australian energy market operator (aemo) said that under extreme weather conditions, if the supply does not improve and large generators cannot be repaired, the worst case could lead to power outages for 1.3 million households in Victoria. Now, this risk still exists. However, the agency said that the vigorous development of roof and grid connected solar power generation in the past year has created an additional 3700 MW of power generation in the whole Australian energy market. Aemo's summer preparation plan issued on December 4 warned that all States were at risk of unplanned power outages due to increased heat waves and bush fires. However, due to the failure of a thermal power plant in Latrobe Valley and a natural gas plant in Western Victoria, Victoria remains the state with the highest risk of power failure. The increased dust storms in Xinzhou and kunzhou due to drought may make the solar panels unable to operate normally. In order to reduce the risk, aemo and Victoria have stored an additional 125 MW of power. But da brosio, the energy department of Victoria, said it was not enough to prevent power outages. When the supply is tight, aemo may instruct the power network to cut off the power supply to customers, which is called load shedding. If the infrastructure of the power grid cannot meet the needs of residents and businesses, the power grid in some areas may also be forced to shut down. The industry said it was trying to meet demand.
