Investigation

There will be an initial investigation phase where the current 2-block automatic under-frequency load shedding (AUFLS) arrangements will be reviewed in detail.

Engagement

The Authority and the system operator (Transpower) will be meeting with distributors and direct connect consumers in the North Island to discuss the project, consult on their views and answer any questions.

In particular, we will be looking to uncover the likely technical challenges, and any proposed solutions, for the move to 4-blocks.
