Lowest ever, going lower – NEM-wide ‘Market Demand’ on Saturday 26th October 2024

A short note (following last night’s question ‘Is the bottom going to fall out of ‘Market Demand’ on a NEM-wide basis tomorrow (Sat 26th Oct 2024)’) with a snapshot from NEMwatch at 11:15 (NEM time) to document NEM-wide ‘Market Demand’ down at only 9,909MW:

2024-10-26-at-11-15-NEMwatch-NEMwide-9909MW

Today we’ve already seen lowest ever* (that was at 11:00, down at 9,716MW) … and it may well drop lower still.

* yes, normal caveats apply (e.g. only since NEM start, etc)

Time to update your question deck for the next Trivia Night, Alex and Declan (of course noting you asked about Operational Demand, instead)!
