I have to be out of the office for the rest of the afternoon so have made this post a little early, recording a higher demand day in Queensland with a snapshot from NEM-Watch:
So far today the highest the demand reached (when measured on a Dispatch Target basis) was 8,388MW (at 15:30), which is still short of the 8,943MW maximum recorded shown in the software
Paul was one of the founders of Global-Roam in February 2000. He is currently the CEO of the company and the principal author of WattClarity. Writing for WattClarity has become a natural extension of his work in understanding the electricity market, enabling him to lead the team in developing better software for clients.
Before co-founding the company, Paul worked as a Mechanical Engineer for the Queensland Electricity Commission in the early 1990s. He also gained international experience in Japan, the United States, Canada, the UK, and Argentina as part of his ES Cornwall Memorial Scholarship.
Some quick reflections on a day that saw spot prices in QLD down below $0/MWh for most of the period seeing strong daylight hours, hence strong injections from rooftop PV systems.
