Performance profiles and statistical insights for every operating unit in the National Electricity Market.
Description
The Generator Statistical Digest (GSD) is a comprehensive statistical report covering all currently operating generation and storage units in the National Electricity Market (NEM). It is designed to support analysts, investors, asset owners and other stakeholders in understanding unit performance and operational behaviour by combining 10-year historical profiles with detailed 12-month performance metrics.
The 2023 edition has been updated for the 2023 calendar year and includes statistical insights into spot and FCAS revenue capture, economic and network curtailment, high-level bidding behaviour, FCAS costs, output profiles, price-setting involvement, rebidding frequency and much more.
The GSD2023 is broken into four parts:
- Section #1: FCAS Bidding Profiles. This section covers all operating units registered to deliver at least one FCAS service. For each service, this section presents charts showing month-to-month FCAS volumes bid across ten price bands from 2014 to 2023, alongside total monthly enablement volumes. A table detailing each unit’s registered FCAS capacity is also included.
- Section #2: Semi-Scheduled Curtailment and Availability. For each operating semi-scheduled unit (such as large solar and wind farms), this section summarises monthly totals for generation, network curtailment, economic curtailment, and unavailability across the 2023 calendar year. Monthly details on availability sources, UIGF sources, and self-forecast suppression are also provided.
- Section #3: FCAS Causer Pays Portfolio. As the FCAS Causer Pays scheme was assessed at a portfolio level at the time, this section reports estimated total FCAS Causer Pays costs for each portfolio, with a breakdown of each unit’s contribution to the total.
- Section #4: Unit Profiles. The core of the report. For every operating unit in the NEM, an A and B page is provided. The A page summarises ten years (2014 – 2023) of monthly spot and FCAS revenues, capacity and availability factors, and bid volumes across fourteen price bands, together with tabulated information on unit starts, price setting involvement and other relevant operational and market data. The B page focuses on the 2023 calendar year only and covers spot and FCAS revenues, FCAS costs, average prices, rebid frequency, rebid reasons, top 5 constraints, unit price capture, temperature performance, and much more.
Note: Purchasing this product provides access to the 2023 edition only, and does not include a subscription to past or future editions of this report.
