Western Australia Wind (SWIS)

Provenance, tier, and validation record for wa-swis-wind. No live curtailment figures on this page — those are on the globe.

Country: AUS
Waste modality: Wind
Coordinates: 35.00° S, 117.90° E

Measured Data quality

Tier

live · T1a-live-tso

The transmission system operator publishes an hourly series, and the calibration rate comes from the same jurisdiction.

Live TSO feed, own-jurisdiction rate (±2σ from 5-yr backfill, fallback ±15%)

Uncertainty

±15% of peak GW

Regions with a five-year backfill archive use ±2σ of observed annual variance instead of this default fraction.

Published envelope for this tier. See the uncertainty model.

Source provenance

verified · Verified upstream link

The snapshot value comes from a verified upstream feed or anchor.

Tier, provenance, and source are read at build time from src/lib/regions.ts — the same table the globe draws from. The validation record below is generated separately and gated against it by npm run ci:docs-drift.

Discrepancy analysis

No backfill and no wind-only TSO curtailment anchor. Region relies on recent Facility SCADA wind generation and the SWIS aggregate 8% curtailment-rate calibration.

Known limitations

AEMO WEM Facility SCADA is a generation feed. The loader applies an 8% calibrated curtailment rate from the WA-SWIS annual anchor, so the hourly shape is live TSO-published but the curtailed magnitude is still rate-calibrated.
