Wrapping up a series of articles on Thursday 18th December 2025 with this NEMwatch snapshot at 19:35 (NEM time):

2025-12-18-at-19-35-NEMwatch

 

Briefly:

1)  No load shedding (i.e. LOR3 condition), but a LOR2 condition until 19:15 (announced in MN131795)

2)  Reserve Trader negotiations started:

(a)  But I don’t believe anything was contracted or payments made … specifically no notices about this.

(b)  Certainly, not dispatched.

3)  Some volatility, but not as extreme as earlier forecasts.
