Rabbit, it wasnt a stuff up in equipment - just procedure.

The current power station you refer to is rated at 6Mw, with 3 engines. The 'max' site demand is 8Mw. The installed power station delivers 4Mw from the 2 engines. You cant run all three as the third is a backup to account for maintenance and standby events. So the difference (4Mw) is sourced from the grid, when it is required (as 8Mw is max load).

I am not saying this will eventuate with RED, but most of the other operators in the region are suffering voltage issues/and or difficulty sourcing the required current. Something has to give. Either the govt invests in infrastructure, the locals stop using energy at peak times, or mine operators develop their own infrastructure.
