There’s one of the Loy Yang A units off this evening (after LYA3 tripped this afternoon) making 2 of 10 coal units out (YWPS3 has also come off, only a couple days after RTS following a planned outage). When you couple this with ‘bugger all*’ wind in the three southern regions (and sunset solar), we start to understand why prices are up a bit this evening.
