Worth a short note with this snapshot from the ‘Bids & Offers’ widget from ez2view at 19:00 (NEM time) on Thursday 12th June 2025 to highlight the short-lived return to service at YWPS4:
We can see that the unit:
1) Came back online yesterday evening (Wednesday 11th June 2025) at around 22:00 … thereby missing out on the revenue opportunities that evening; and also
2) The unit came offline today around 15:30 … so also missing the ‘higher and longer’ period of volatility this evening.

Prompted by the massive loss reported by CLP for its EnergyAustralia business, and plans for major outages for 4 units at Yallourn, we took a quick look using ez2view at outage plans.
Two initial thoughts, following EnergyAustralia’s announcement that they will close Yallourn Power Station four years earlier than initially planned (mid-2028).
