Bushfires in Southern New South Wales have impacted the electricity network with reports that electricity supply stations and transmission lines in the Snowy Mountains have been damaged.
Matt Kean Minister of Parliament is calling on residents across New South Wales to reduce their demand on the electricity network tonight.
Things you can do to help, if you’re in the South Coast of New South Wales in Australia now:
- Turn off pool pumps
- Set your air conditioner to twenty four or twenty five degrees Celsius
- Do not use washing machines, dryers or dishwashers
- Turn off appliances or lights in rooms not being used
AEMO, Trans Grid and energy distributors are working to keep the power supply stable.
