Josh Stabler of EnergyEdge spoke at the Energy Users Association of Australia (EUAA) conference in Melbourne this morning.
Josh’s presentation titled “the timeline of energy scarcity’ was focused on rising spot and futures prices throughout the NEM – highlighting the evolution of Queensland’s quarter-to-date (1 Apr – 9 May 2022) spot price average, which currently sits at $255/MWh. Forward curves for the region are also elevated with the next eight quarters in excess of $100/MWh.
It’s a similar story in the other three mainland regions of the NEM where spot prices are also at elevated levels – New South Wales at $225/MWh, Victoria at $149/MWh and South Australia at $162/MWh.

Joshua Stabler is the Managing Director at Energy Edge.
He has extensive experience in supply-side market operations for the electricity and gas sectors, and as an advisor and system developer in the Australian energy industry.
Tristan Edis of Green Energy Markets argues how system longevity, battery-coupling, distribution network capability, and increasing capacity will shore up rooftop PV’s position in the market.
Generators used to consider the Australian National Electricity Market (NEM) FCAS causers pays factors (CPF), used to allocate FCAS regulation costs across the market, as an obscure and unimportant technically challenging curiosity. Since 2014, the cost of FCAS regulation services for generators has increased from just under $5 million per year to greater than $60 million for 2016 and now has the attention of all of the generators, especially if their portfolio includes generation assets in regions with a lack of FCAS regulation providers and high prices such as South Australia.
