Explainers5 days agoMinimum System Load is becoming an operational challenge for AEMO as the grid shifts toward high levels of renewable generation. When the system leans too heavily on inverter-based resources, it becomes more exposed to voltage and frequency disturbances.
Research13 Nov 2025Battery energy storage deployment in Australia’s National Electricity Market (NEM) is rapidly accelerating. This article provides an update on battery energy storage deployment in the NEM, highlighting newly commissioned assets, trends in system size and duration, and what this means for our forecast through to the end of 2028.
Research06 Nov 2025Battery availability in the NEM is often seen as a technical measure, but in practice it more often reflects how operators trade. Batteries adjust their availability constantly, responding to price signals, charge levels, and network constraints.
Benchmark Report16 Oct 2025Battery optimisation in the NEM continues to evolve as the fleet expands and market dynamics shift. Each quarter brings new challenges for operators and the autobidder - from managing exposure to volatile FCAS prices to balancing dispatch against reven...
