In this week’s episode of AEMO On Air, we break down our recently released Quarterly Energy Dynamics (QED) report with AEMO’s Manager of Market Insights, Kerry Galloway.
Tune in as we discuss how the June quarter's low wind speeds and reduced rainfall in south-eastern Australia saw decreases in electricity supplied from wind and hydro, why flexible gas-powered generation is the ultimate backstop for periods of reduced renewable generation and how Western Australia set a new 2nd quarter record for renewables in the grid.
