Evening volatility in QLD and NSW on Thursday 12th December 2024

We noted as it happened (e.g. hard to ignore a steady run of SMS alerts) , but only belatedly publish this record of evening volatility on Thursday evening 12th December 2024 – starting with this snapshot of tabulated Spot Price and ‘Market Demand’ from inside of NEMwatch:

2024-12-12-at-21-00-NEMwatch-tabular-price-demand

We see that:

1)  First price spike above $1,000/MWh was at 17:50 (NEM time) whilst last one was 19:30

2)  During this period, the levels of ‘Market Demand’ were relatively modest.

Here’s the 18:40 dispatch interval (NEM time) captured in NEMwatch to show more of what was happening at the time:

2024-12-12-at-18-40-NEMwatch

 

Nothing further, at this point.
