The NSW Government released its budget today, and so I was wondering if it contained anything about negotiations about the possible extension of Eraring Power Station…
I’ve not had any time to read the details (a quick search reveals 2 references to Eraring, but both of these refer to considerations relating to the earlier sale process from several years ago). However I note that Alexi Demetriadi did write ‘No Eraring extension money in budget as NSW Treasurer targets bill relief, renewables’ in the Australian:
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.
Given that we’ve taken an interest in what’s going to happen with the looming closure of Eraring Power Station, I thought it would be useful to our readers to highlight Peter Hannam’s article in the Guardian today about a (possibly soon) decision about an extension to service.
Some news articles this morning, following a media tour of Eraring Power Station, prompted a piece of quick analysis (focused on ER01) of MinGen levels.
A question on Twitter from Benny Beatts (about dispatch of Origin’s Eraring unit 2 on Monday 30th May) illustrates why price setting is not as simple as adding up bids that are dispatched.
