Evening volatility in QLD and NSW on Monday 18th November 2024

A very short article on Monday evening 18th November 2024 with this snapshot from ez2view time-travelled back* to the 18:45 dispatch interval (NEM time) to show some of the volatility experiences in QLD and NSW this evening:

*  from later in the current day, so no ‘Next Day Public’ data available yet.

Amongst** the contributing factors we see several constraint equations in the same family that have been bound across the two-hour historical window shown in the ‘Swim Lanes’ Widget:

1)  Three are particularly familiar, because we’ve seen them all in recent times.  These are:

(a)  the  ‘N::N_MNYS_2’ constraint equation,

(b)  he ‘N>>5_998_4’ constraint equation

(c)  the  ‘N>>5_998_61’ constraint equation

2)  Which are both part of the the ‘N-MNYS_5_WG_CLOSE’ Constraint Set

…. remember that we noted before about:

(a)  how  ‘VIC1-NSW1 interconnector unable to Target Flow north, on Thursday afternoon-evening 7th November 2024’.

(b)  and about ‘Reviewing the ‘N-MNYS_5_WG_CLOSE’ Constraint Set, as a major factor in recent northern volatility’.

3)  As noted in that article, they are all limiting flow north from VIC into NSW … hence acting to support the volatility.

 

 ** note that there are other factors, in addition to the one highlighted here.

 

That’s all for now…
