From the market data, Berrybank 2’s ups and downs are clearly constraint driven (like Moorabool WF), although it was persistently below target output (by up to 10-15%) between 11:00 and 13:00.
On the other hand Berrybank 1’s availability dropped to low levels then to zero in the half hour following the main event and stayed there for all but a couple of DIs until about 20:00 when it recovered.
