Morning volatility in South Australia on Thursday 1st September 2022

Posted by Paul McArdle Thursday, September 1 2022 Topic: Spring 2022 in the NEM

It’s officially the first day of spring and electricity users in South Australia have woken this morning to low wind generation and constrained imports from VIC – leading to a run of volatility with prices first rising above $1,000/MWh from the 06:15 dispatch interval as shown here:

As I hit publish on this article, the price is $3,971.59/MWh in the 07:35 dispatch interval – as seen here in this NEMwatch v10 snapshot:

Because of this volatility (and keeping in mind other recent runs, like last Friday 26th August) the Cumulative Price is up above $700,000.
