WEM data, analysis-ready
Granular WEM datasets, intelligence packs, Excel models, and research reports — cleaned, merged, and ready to use.
The Wholesale Electricity Market
The WEM is Western Australia's stand-alone electricity market, serving the South West Interconnected System (SWIS) — the grid covering Perth and the south-west corner of the state. Unlike the eastern states' National Electricity Market, the WEM operates independently and has been administered by AEMO since October 2023.
All datasets on this platform are sourced directly from AEMO's WEM data feeds and cover generation, pricing, and dispatch activity within the SWIS only.

WEM Data Mart datasets are used by energy market participants, project developers, and researchers across Australia.
Energy market analysis & trading
Half-hour dispatch prices and quantities from WEM market commencement power position modelling, price forecasting, bid analysis, and market performance reporting for energy businesses and retailers.
Wind energy development & investment
Capacity factor profiles, seasonal generation patterns, and shape value analysis for PPA and CFD pricing, generation revenue forecasting, and portfolio due diligence across all 17 WEM wind farms.
Research & modelling
Monthly summary statistics and structured CSV exports integrate directly with Python, R, and Excel for econometric modelling, renewable energy research, and academic analysis of the WEM transition.
Data quality, by design
Every product is validated automatically before each monthly release against fixed thresholds (row counts, null rates, value ranges, recency) and a run-to-run regression check. Quality reports are published to GCS alongside each data file and accessible from the download portal.
Quality flag files are written to GCS on failure and reviewed before the next release. Run-to-run delta checks additionally flag regressions that stay within absolute thresholds — catching subtle degradation across releases.
