One image from NEM-Watch today to record a higher demand day in Queensland driven as the heat wave that afflicted NSW yesterday and the southern regions last Friday.
What’s most noticeable in this snapshot is how NEM-wide demand is amazingly low, for a summer week-day (because of the much milder conditions down south that are hopefully assisting with containment of the bushfires burning there).
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.
With all 6 x Gladstone units expected to be offline by the end of the day due to Industrial Action, very timely that AEMO MN124047 notifies the market that ‘The system normal equations have been revised to remove Gladstone >=1 requirement’
Over the period of summer 2006-07, we prepared a number of articles about other occasions of note in the NEM (in addition to the blackout of 16th January 2007, which has been written about separately).
