1

Price formation, duration & capture

The half-hourly shape is where the money is made. This is one real WEM trading day, straight from the feed — see what your asset actually captures versus the flat daily average.

2

Arbitrage & value-stack engine

Where the revenue actually comes from, by component. Capacity is computed from the live RCM register. Sample components are off by default — turn them on only to sketch a shape, never to quote a number.

3

Gas & fuel cockpit

WA's domestic gas balance sets the marginal cost of the whole system. Move the delivered gas price to see where a CCGT sits against the real price stack.

4

New-build pipeline & impact

Each new entrant re-prices your position. Direction and rationale only — no percentages until the counterfactual engine passes its backcast (review item #3).

5

Regulatory & policy reset tracker

The revenue stack is reset by regulators on a clock. Markers most material to your lens are highlighted; dates the regulator has not fixed are marked as estimates.
