NgΔmotu (ish) based "Crazy Cat Man" owned by a small army of cats πππππ who is currently on a break from working in InfoSec, spending time in my ~1 acre section trying to make food appear and making it a nice place for the long term.
Sometimes I do radio stuff and take photos of the night sky. Post a fair bit of rambling nonsense interspersed with #cat pictures.

ugh, sidekiq crashed again. Only 90,000 things in the queue
Ugh, just looked at the weather station. 60mm of rain so far today.
Half of that was in one hour overnight... explains why things were a bit soggy outside.

and yes, that $/kWh I've highlighted in the tooltip is correct. the interim pricing (the post Trading Period Price) really was that low.
It was actually as low as $0.00088/kWh at points (not a typo, was $0.88/MWh) today.
Bit of a shite of a day/weekend but I did do something...
I've taken the Generation Renewable % and plotted it against $/kWh over time. It's not enough data yet but it updates from WITS and em6 every 30 minutes so over time I might be able to build a picture (or a graph I guess) of if there is a direct relationship between the two.
It's not the best graph, I'm a bit fried but it's at least a start.
