Topic: Summer 2023-24 in the NEM
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:
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…
