Worth a quick note with a NEMwatch snapshot at 10:35 (NEM time) on Sunday 31st August 2025 to mark the ‘lowest ever*’ point for ‘Market Demand’ nudging lower still in the Queensland region:
Paul was one of the founders of Global-Roam in February 2000. He is currently the CEO of the company and the principal author of WattClarity. Writing for WattClarity has become a natural extension of his work in understanding the electricity market, enabling him to lead the team in developing better software for clients.
Before co-founding the company, Paul worked as a Mechanical Engineer for the Queensland Electricity Commission in the early 1990s. He also gained international experience in Japan, the United States, Canada, the UK, and Argentina as part of his ES Cornwall Memorial Scholarship.
Also noteworthy on Sunday 1st October 2023 was a lower point for ‘minimum demand’ seen in South Australia … with ‘Market Demand’ down to -37MW and ‘Operational Demand’ down to 5MW (just above 0MW)
Looks like AEMO will be announcing a new ‘lowest point’ for Operational Demand in NSW later, given what has happened on Monday 4th October 2021 (Labour Day holiday).
An email alert from NEMwatch (noting Scheduled Demand under 500MW in South Australia today) distracts us, and prompts us to dig a little deeper at the longer-term trend.
