"The tripping of the Lismore Coffs Harbour transmission line – which actually occurred at 5am – did not immediately impact supply because of low demand during the day, and because local solar would have met some demand. So, it was solar that saved them from a longer blackout."
While that may be true, the main blackout ocurred from 6:17 pm onwards. Unfortunately, solar doesn't work after sunset, so solar didn't save Lismore when electricity demand was high.

More evidence that we need a new energy policy that includes nuclear, gas and coal as well as renewables.
