Overview of the NEM

This is the ideal course for newcomers to the electricity industry or people looking to expand their general knowledge of the NEM.
Over the two days, we look to provide attendees with a broad understanding of how the NEM fits together, as both a physical power system and a wholesale market for electricity. It answers questions like:

    • How does the power system operate ?
    • What are the processes involved in network planning?
    • How is the wholesale market price set and what factors affect it?
    • What are ancillary services used for and how are they priced?
    • Why is metering data important to the way the NEM works?
    • How does AEMO settle the NEM each week?
    • Key decisions in the NEM: how are they made and by whom?
