It was only 5 days (on Sunday 20th October 2024) when we wrote about ‘New ‘lowest ever*’ point of NSW ‘Market Demand’, on Sunday 20th October 2024’ with ‘Market Demand’ down at 3,150MW at the 12:45 dispatch interval.
So it was with some interest that a client let me know of what they’d seen in their own copy of ez2view late this afternoon, and which I have represented here in two copies of ‘Forecast Convergence’ side-by-side:
1) focused on the 13:00 dispatch interval in the P30 predispatch
… remembering Tripwire #1 and Tripwire #2 that arrived with the advent of Five Minute Settlement.
2) with ‘Market Demand’ possibly down at 2,678MW
3) which would be (if the forecast holds true) a massive 472MW drop (or 15% lower) than the ‘lowest ever*’ point set just last weekend!
Yikes!
We’ll see what actually happens tomorrow!
