The South Australian network operator says a software problem led to load shedding of 300MW instead of the 100MW requested by national market
SA Power Networks has said it knew a software glitch caused an additional 60,000 houses in South Australia to be out of power during load shedding this month.
Yet the state's network operator stayed quiet for a week and a half while the Turnbull government continued to criticise the South Australian government's use of renewables.
