Burst of volatility in QLD and NSW, on Friday evening 15th November 2024

A very quick article on Friday evening 15th November 2024 with snapshots of one ez2view windows (with a different collage of widgets), time-travelled back to the 18:35 dispatch interval (NEM time) from a little later in the current day (i.e. before ‘next day public’ data is available).

2024-11-15-at-18-35-ez2view-Volatility

Briefly, with respect to the annotations (and noting some similarities to what happened on Thursday 7th November 2024) we see:

1)  Spot prices are up in QLD and NSW

2)  We see that the VIC1-NSW1 interconnector is constrained so that it can’t flow north or south

…. remember that we noted that that ‘VIC1-NSW1 interconnector unable to Target Flow north, on Thursday afternoon-evening 7th November 2024’.

3)  We see that the the ‘N-MNYS_5_WG_CLOSE’ Constraint Set  is again bound

…. remember we already wrote about ‘Reviewing the ‘N-MNYS_5_WG_CLOSE’ Constraint Set, as a major factor in recent northern volatility’.

4)  We also see the Negative Residue Management constraint bound, limiting flows on VIC1-NSW1 in the other direction

5)  Finally (as a curiosity) we see a big ramp up at Collector Wind Farm that others might like to drill into with their own copies of ez2view.

 

That’s all for now…
