Explanation of terms

The following explains the source of the items on the above table.  Note that all these items are forecast results from the STPASA Outage LRC run, and are relevant to the peak demand period of each day.

Demand:
The most likely peak demand for the region based on weather adjusted forecasts by AEMO with a 50% probability of exceedance, to be met by scheduled generation (either locally or via interconnector imports).

Supply:
Total generating capacity that is available within the selected region, based on the Maximum Availability of all scheduled generation within that region (as advised by the relevant Generators), subjected to any network constraints and/or daily energy limitations on that generation. This figure includes net export to other regions and excludes net import from other regions via interconnectors.

Reserve:

• Reserve: The supply available to a region in excess of the scheduled demand including supply from other regions through interconnectors.

Time:
The time of the forecast daily peak demand in Eastern Standard Time.
