Loy Yang A power station to ‘explain’ its closure during mass outage
Around 500,000 households have been affected by the power outages after severe storms flattened transmission towers in Anakie, just north of Geelong.
Victorian Emergency Management Commissioner Rick Nugent warned it could potentially take up to a week for some houses and businesses to get their power back.
Mr Beattie told Sky News host Andrew Bolt that Loy Yang A power station is going to get a letter asking them to “explain” its closure.
“Because the generators beside it did not go off and they continued to maintain electricity.”
