NEM-wide ‘Market Demand’ above 31,000MW on Monday 12th February 2024

A very short article with a snapshot from NEMwatch at 18:05 recording that NEM-wide ‘Market Demand’ at this point has reached 31,311MW:

2024-02-12-at-18-05-NEMwatch-31311MW

Quick notes:

1)  It has not happened much this summer that the demand (by this measure) has been above 30,000MW:

(a)  Only 2 days saw peak demand above 30,000MW at the end of January 2024;

(b)   Sunday 4th February 2024 was notably different.

2)  Note that all 4 x mainland region demand colours have risen out of the ‘green zone’ in response to the current temperature patterns.

Something we might refer back to later…
