Interconnector upgrade to benefit NEM

摘要

A proposal to upgrade the South Australian and Victorian Heywood electricity network interconnector will optimise the transfer of power between the two states. The proposal to install a third transformer at Heywood in Victoria, series compensation on 275 kV transmission lines in South Australia, and 132 kV network reconfiguration works in South Australia is expected to increase interconnector capability by about 40 per cent in both directions.
