Energy Minister Matt Kean has told Sydney residents to reduce energy usage between 5.30pm and 8pm tonight.

The Minister told Jim Wilson, The Australian Energy Market Operator system informed him that “supply conditions will be tight”.

“A number of the generators that we rely on to produce our electricity haven’t come online in the way we expect them to,” he said.
