One of three founders of Global-Roam back in 2000, Paul has been CEO of the company since that time.
As an author on WattClarity, Paul's focus has been to help make the electricity market more understandable.
We’ve already looked at how there was a drop in system frequency at ~10:41 NEM time (outside of the NOFB) in conjunction with trips of units at Yallourn Power Station. Well, believe it or not there was a couple drops – not as big – later in the day.
A first article from me after starting to delve into a 14-hour time series of AEMO’s 4-second data for Tuesday 13th February 2024 (this one a trend of frequency to highlight points of interest).
The National Electricity Market (NEM) is designed to operate at 50 Hz. Frequency deviation occurs when generation and load are mismatched. It is important in a lightly meshed and long network such as the NEM to maintain tight frequency control and that frequency response is available throughout the network.
