A collation of articles here pertaining to energy literacy.
Josh Boegheim from Powerlink discusses the limitations of perfect foresight assumptions for system planning—and shares results from a recent study that simulated energy storage dispatch using deterministic and stochastic forecasting approaches.
5th article in a series, about the AEMO's ICF0002 initiative (and prior to tomorrow's EWCF Meeting) - to identify some questions and concerns.
As promised in prior articles, here's an illustration of (some of the) different Ramp Trajectories considered in Dispatch within the NEM.
4th article in a series, about the AEMO's ICF0002 initiative - clarifying 2 approaches might (possibly) be explored to resolve.
3rd article in a series, about the AEMO's ICF0002 initiative - and a possible 'solution' being considered (but for which we have concerns).
2nd article in a series, about the AEMO's ICF0002 initiative (re problems with the ~20 second lag in receipt of Dispatch Target).
1st article in a series, about the AEMO's ICF0002 initiative (specifically the content in EWCF meeting on 19th March 2024).
A third step in the 'Energy Literacy' journey in helping readers to understand the complexities within each and every Dispatch Interval.
A second step in the 'Energy Literacy' journey in helping readers to understand the complexities within each and every Dispatch Interval.
This article is a first step into exploring some of the complexities within three of the commonly used time-steps across the NEM.
The NEM operates at a frequency of 50 hertz (Hz) which means the alternating current should cycle 50 times a second between positive and negative voltage.
There’s essentially three measures of demand that are commonly talked about, and they are not really interchangeable.
Oliver Nunn and his team at Endgame Economics have written this introductory three-part guide to market modelling in the NEM. This is Part 3: "Defense against the dark arts"

Oliver Nunn and his team at Endgame Economics have written this introductory three-part guide to market modelling in the NEM. This is Part 1: "Building the Arena"
We already noted this a few times recently, but we thought it would be worth separating out as its own article under the ‘Energy Literacy’ category, as it’s likely we’ll be referring back to...
Warwick Forster of Apogee Energy explains how retail and generator hedging works within a portfolio.
A timely reminder from the BOM of why 'Apparent Temperature' can be significantly higher than 'Actual Temperature' ... such as across QLD on Saturday 27th Jan 2024 (and also Mon 22nd Jan 2024).
The third and final part of this series of articles from Greg Williams about opportunity costs in electricity markets - this time narrowing in on policy implications.
In the second part of this three part series, Greg Williams explains how fuel cost scarcity, inflexibilities, opportunity costs and other factors affects generator bids/offers.
