Context

Highest since we started · Demand in NEM New South Wales: 6545 MW in the 5-minute interval starting 2026-10-23 19:15 UTC. We have tracked this market since 2026-10-23. The window is short, so this says nothing about earlier years.

No earlier tracked value of this kind exists in our data window, so this entry is a baseline that later readings can beat. Baseline entries are not marked notable and are not offered to search engines.

Conditions in the data at the same time: NEM-NSW1 price rt5 115.5 AUD/MWh (reading at 19:15 UTC). These are the readings nearest to the tracked interval in the same database, shown for context only; they do not explain the value on their own.

First seen in a batch fetched at 2026-10-23 19:18 UTC (payload 3df10cdfd6). It was checked after a second batch fetched at 2026-10-23 20:18 UTC (payload 5bf694df2b): a later batch arrived, this feed does not republish old intervals, and the stored point stayed unrevised, unflagged and within 2%.

For comparison, the next most extreme valid reading in the same series is 9198.7 MW at 2026-10-25 06:40 UTC, out of 484 readings in the window.

These values are built from provisional operator data that can be revised, so each one is checked against later batches before it is marked Tracking and can be withdrawn if the source changes it. Readings outside market bounds, with a wrong unit, flagged by a quality gate or showing a price jump without a matching load change are rejected and never listed. See the methodology page for the full rules. Not for trading or operational decisions. Provisional data.
