Almost 2.5 years since we released GenInsights21, today we're publishing this article that contains a precis of the analysis included as Appendix 27 under the title 'Exploring Wind Diversity'.
Following the release of GenInsights Quarterly Updates for 2023 Q3 we've chosen to share here one of the clear challenges for large-scale VRE that is emerging (particularly in 2023 Q3) due to the rise...
Straight out of the pages of the FinReview and into spot price outcomes in the NEM on Sunday 11th July 2021!
David Osmond's question on Twitter prompted me to have a look at large wind production overnight.
Today AGL Energy announces a big impairment ... with a big chunk related to long-term wind offtake agreements which AGL entered into between 2006 and 2012.
Patricia Boyce' challenging question coincided with the low point of cyclic wind output across the NEM this afternoon, and prompted some thinking...
An article published by AEMC on the 'value of dispatchability' provided the spur to return to our intention of freely sharing insights gleaned from the Generator Statistical Digest 2019. Today's article highlighting the value...
RepuTex Energy builds on the Generator Report Card 2018 to provide insights into how different weather patterns impact wind production and the implications for system diversity and portfolio risk.
A full page article in the FinReview today quotes a number of people (including our work in the Generator Report Card) speaking about heightened risk in the NEM. Coincident with this, we see another...
In terms of diversity of intermittent supplies, we need to understand that we're not just comparing data series on a scale that runs from "highly correlated" to "random"...
Following from (what we have seen as) an increase in diversity of concerns (and claims) about different aspects of generator performance, we're leveraging our extensive data set and capabilities to have a deeper look,...
A brief follow on from yesterday's post, with the advantage of being able to review yesterday's bids (and rebids) today.
The past week, with wind farm output blowing gangbusters in South Australia (coupled with low demand and System Strength requirements) we seen the "Wind Correlation Penalty" start to bite, with some reactions also beginning...
This morning over on Twitter, I was pulled into a discussion that had started with respect to volume of wind energy curtailed in South Australia: The genesis of this twitter conversation was the...
It was inevitable that Semi-Scheduled plant would start to experience times when they are dispatched down. It's a big prompt to take next steps up the learning curve.
An article that sums up some decidedly un-quick calculations we've performed - looking over an 8 week period to 13th September to estimate how much wind power has been curtailed by the AEMO.
Some thoughts about the possible uplift to Infigen Energy revenues, stemming from higher forward contract prices in the South Australian region of the NEM
