Jus thought I would add a chart that others might find useful in evaluating if a purchase of a small generator is worthwhile. The chart is a pivot table of gas price and efficiency, with the break even MW.hr price in the body. Todays gas price is hovering around $8 per GJ, the Victorian grid price is going between 75 and 105 $per MW.hr. The nova site has an efficiency of 40% so will be operating today. Peakers of less than 30% efficiency will not. Gas price and grid prices can be obtained vie the aemo website.
Not the figures above do not include any margins due to other operating costs that may apply.
