New South Wales price history reflects the state's coal-dominated baseload and the growing influence of utility-scale solar and wind. Daily averages typically sit in the moderate range, with summer heatwaves and coal plant outages driving the largest excursions.
For background on how AEMO sets NEM dispatch prices, read the wholesale electricity guide. Or jump to the live NSW spot price and forecast.
The daily average and 90-day summary above show NSW’s recent price history, aggregated from 5-minute AEMO dispatch data into daily minimum, average, time-weighted average and maximum figures.
The simple average treats every 5-minute interval equally. The time-weighted average also does this over the trading day, but is the figure most retail and wholesale contracts reference, since it reflects the price actually paid across the full period rather than being skewed by a handful of extreme intervals.
Summer heatwaves and unplanned outages at NSW’s large coal generators typically produce the biggest daily maximum price excursions in the historical data above.
