Market analysis of 28 November 2023
Wind generators delivered 68.05 GWh on 28 November 2023 and solar generators delivered 27.55 GWh, a combined 95.60 GWh across Australia’s five eastern and southern market regions. In Network Map’s daily unit records for 1 November to 30 November 2023, that was the 11th-highest daily wind total of 30 dates and the 23rd-highest combined wind and solar day.
Wind output averaged 63.08 GWh a day over the same dates, so 28 November ran 7.9% above the period mean. Hydro added 26.75 GWh, while black and brown coal units supplied 205.69 GWh.
The Daily Pattern Through The Month
The first chart places the event day in its monthly context. It shows daily wind and solar energy for each date from 1 November to 30 November. Wind was the larger of the two on 28 November, at 2.47 times the solar total.
Where The Energy Came From
Victoria supplied the largest regional share of wind and solar energy, 26.87 GWh or 28.2% of the day’s total. New South Wales followed with 26.63 GWh, and South Australia contributed 23.95 GWh.
Reading The Day For Asset Performance
A high-output day is a useful benchmark for comparing a single wind or solar unit with its fuel group and its region. The next step is to match each unit’s interval output with the prices that applied when the energy was delivered, which turns the volume result into a revenue view.
Figures use positive energy from Network Map’s daily unit records for 28 November 2023, grouped by source fuel classification and region. Daily totals are summed across all classified units.
