Hour 01 · 2026-05-29
Illustrative clearing — production MMS would use a SCED-class optimiser.
In hour 01, the SMP cleared at R864.61 / MWh. The marginal offer was Eskom Holdings — coal fleet (Generator)'s — the last unit of generation needed to meet demand. By uniform-price rule, every accepted seller was paid R864.61 / MWh for their share of the 22000 MWh cleared this hour.
See the in-browser verifier to confirm the SMP from the receipt's canonical inputs.
