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).
One of three founders of Global-Roam back in 2000, Paul has been CEO of the company since that time.
As an author on WattClarity, Paul's focus has been to help make the electricity market more understandable.
Took 2-3 times longer than planned (as there were a few different interesting observations that came out) but here is our initial – and perhaps only! – review of what happened in South Australia on Thursday 19th December 2019 (i.e. yesterday).
Already we are seeing the highly correlated output of solar PV deliver interesting challenges for the NEM – both to the project proponents themselves, and also to the “everything else” that supplies what’s left of the underlying demand from electricity from any source.
