A quick note today to provide the following chart from NEM-Review v6 to illustrate that the 10MW solar component of the Gullen Range started operation on 14th September, augmenting the wind-powered output for the pre-existing station. The following chart starts 1st September and highlights the difference in output cycles for wind and solar on the same site, albeit with solar a much small installed capacity:
Just one of an escalating number of developments unfolding in this broader energy transition.

The growth of Large Solar in the NEM has been phenomenal, and a sign that things are changing quickly in the Australian energy industry. The chart attached is the maximum output of each region from Large Solar installations on a…
On Thursday 21st May, Marcelle Gannon and Jonathon Dyson jointly shared a large number of insights and tips to help those interested in developing and/or operating Large Solar Farms in the NEM maximise the value they receive. Useful also for those interested in Wind Farms (i.e. any Semi-Scheduled plant), and also hybrid operations using Batteries.
Analysis compiled to explore what the impact was of the unusual weather pattern (extensive cloud cover and cold temperatures) seen across a large part of Queensland on Saturday 23rd May 2020.
A short article today, highlighting the release of this Amperon report for AEMO looking at the way in which the performance of some Large Solar Farms in the NEM were affected by bushfire smoke through summer 2019-20.
