Australia's energy regulator has launched court action against four windfarm operators, alleging they failed to meet performance requirements during 2016's statewide South Australian blackout.
About 850,000 homes lost power on 28 September that year, when severe weather conditions led to significant damage to SA transmission lines, causing voltage disturbances. The event heightened a fractious national debate about energy policy.
The Australian Energy Regulator has said a loss of wind generation after the voltage disturbances contributed to the the blackout.
It alleges subsidiaries of the four companies - AGL Energy, Neoen SA, Pacific Hydro and Tilt Renewables - failed to ensure their windfarms complied with a generator performance standard requirement and had automatic protection systems to ensure continuity of supply.
