What happened on 14 November

On 14 November, 3 markets paid buyers to take power at some point: South Australia for 7 h 50 minD, Tasmania for 1 h 50 minD and Victoria for 1 h 50 minD. The longest unbroken run was in South Australia, 1 h 50 minD from 08:35–10:25 ACDT; the lowest price there during the day was −A$148D/MWh. The run sat inside local daytime hours, when rooftop and utility solar in the NEM is producing. This site does not publish a generation mix for the NEM regions, so the solar and wind share in those intervals is not shown.

Denmark had the cleanest mix of the grids we meter, 80.3D % renewable over the day, with wind at 76.2D % and solar at 4.1D %. Great Britain followed at 48.9D % renewable with wind 38.3D % (transmission-metered; solar on local networks is not in this data). Taiwan followed at 6.5D % renewable with wind 2.8D % and solar 2.2D %. Across the 8D markets with a full day of metered demand, 1,846,770D MWh was used, Taiwan the largest at 35.4D % of it.

Time below zero across all markets added up to 11 h 30 minD, more than the 1 h 45 minD on 13 November. Tasmania went below zero after staying positive the day before. Queensland stayed above zero this time. Electricity used fell in every market compared, most in South Australia (−20.7D %) and least in New South Wales (−1.5D %). Denmark's renewable share fell by 3.6D points, from 83.9D %. Great Britain's renewable share rose by 7.2D points, from 41.7D %. Taiwan's renewable share fell by 2.8D points, from 9.3D %. The cheapest hour anywhere cost about −60D USD/MWh, against −4D on 13 November.

How to read this. The 14 November recap covers 15D markets (8D with a full day of demand) and was frozen at 00:30 UTC on 15 November; later operator revisions are not applied. A D badge marks a number we calculated from the operators' metered data, an M badge one published as is. Durations add up priced intervals below zero, clock times are each market's local time, and shares are energy-weighted over the day. Definitions and limits are in the methodology.
