Elevated demand in SA and VIC on Saturday 9th March 2024

As forecast on Friday, we’re seeing moderately high demand in SA and VIC on Saturday evening 9th March 2024.

Here’s a snapshot from NEMwatch at the 18:25 dispatch interval showing ‘Market Demand’ in both regions out of ‘the green zone’ – with SA at 2,726MW  and VIC at 8,303MW:

There’s still a bit of wind around this evening in SA (and also in VIC), which is one reason that prices, whilst elevated somewhat, are not sky-high.
