System Intelligence

System Intelligence shows NEM-wide and regional metrics over time: generation mix, demand, spot prices, and FCAS. Use it to analyse how the system behaved over a chosen date range and to compare regions or drill into specific services.

Access System Intelligence from the app sidebar under Analyse, with Asset Intelligence and Command Centre.

Overview

At the top you choose the region: National (NEM) for system-level totals, or a single region (NSW1, QLD1, SA1, TAS1, VIC1) for that region only. Then choose a date range: 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, or 1 month. For the 1-month view you also select the month and year.

The page shows a set of charts that update when you change region or range. Each chart can be exported as an image for reports or presentations.

Charts

The main charts you will see are:

  • System generation (National): Total NEM generation over time, stacked by fuel type (coal, gas, hydro, solar, wind, battery, and others). Shows how the mix changes through the day and across the selected window.
  • Region generation: When a single region is selected, a stacked area or bar chart of that region’s generation by fuel.
  • Region price: The regional reference price (spot price) over time for the selected region or for all regions in comparison.
  • Region FCAS: FCAS prices and optionally quantities for regulation and contingency services in the selected region, so you can see when FCAS was expensive or constrained.

Chart data is based on AEMO dispatch and market data. For definitions of FCAS and pricing, see the FCAS and Dispatch & Pricing concept pages.
