Generators should have to bid on a cost plus basis for total supply. Bidding to spot prices amounts to nothing more than price gouging when they rise with demand.If anything prices should fall as demand rises due to economies of scale kicking in not the reverse. As it is,projects like snowy 2 are only viable due to arbitrage of price variations but not because of true utility or competitiveness.
