(Last week) on Thursday 22nd August 2024 we* released our detailed review of 2024 Q2, and on Friday we delivered an Executive Briefing to one of our clients:

* noting again that this was a collaborative effort between some of us at Global-Roam Pty Ltd (the producers of WattClarity) and the analytical team at Greenview Strategic Consulting.

GenInsights-QuarterlyUpdates-2024-Q2-Cover-withContents

This edition was 314 pages long … following a similar structure as before:

1)  with various pieces of analysis aggregated into 6 Appendices

2)  capped by a Main Report including both:

(a)  6 Key Observations drawn from the Appendices; and

(b)  a Chronological summary of events through each of the the ~90 days in the quarter.

 

With this edition, we made some strides to catch up on our timing for the release of the report … with the detailed review of 2024 Q1 released quite belatedly.

Time permitting this week, we might share with our readers here three separate excerpt (note – not the headline Key Observations noted above) about the evolution of the NEM … each perhaps particularly relevant with the release of the 2024 ESOO coming later in the week:
