Cumulative ‘worm line’ view of NEMwide wind production in 2025 Q2 (to Sunday 8th June 2025)

Winter 2025 has arrived, with a cold front driving windy weather, lower temperatures, and snow falls in the expected areas this weekend.  For a period of time over this weekend the NEM-wide wind production has peaked above 8,000MW as clients can see in this live Dashboard view, and we an also see that:

1)  This is a fair way below the ‘new all-time record for NEMwide production from Wind on Monday 26th May 2025’ …

2)  and is also just below the prior all-time record (8,431MW on Thursday 30th May 2024).

 

Today I utilised NEMreview v7 to extract some wind production data from 1st April 2025 (i.e. for 2025 Q2 ytd) and updated the ‘worm line’ chart that was used a couple times through the wind drought of 2024 Q2, including in these final figures.  This is shown below:

Clearly the cumulative quarterly production is trending above the other Q2 periods shown.  We’ll check back after the end of the month (as time permits) to update this analysis.
