ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Following the release of AEMO’s Transition Plan for System Security (TPSS) in December 2025, this episode explores what it takes to keep Australia’s power system secure as the energy transition accelerates.
In the third and final instalment in our system security series, Dr Niraj (Nij) Lal talks to Lars Narushevich, Specialist Engineer in System Security Planning at AEMO, to break down the fundamentals of system security and how the industry is working with AEMO to keep the power system secure.
NIj and Lars discuss what system security means in the National Electricity Market (NEM) and why it’s a shared responsibility, how AEMO sets system security requirements 3-10 years ahead through the planning process, the role of system strength and inertia in a secure power system, and how AEMO works with transmission network service providers to identify gaps and signal future needs.
