5-minute DUID-level SCADA megawatt output for every generating unit registered in the NEM. Source: DISPATCH.UNIT_SCADA in PUBLIC_DISPATCHSCADA. Each row reports one (unit × 5-min interval) pair. To aggregate by fuel or region, pass `filters={"fuel": "black_coal"}` or `filters={"region": "QLD1"}` - the server joins against a bundled DUID snapshot (DUDETAILSUMMARY) to resolve those into a DUID allow-list. Recognised fuel buckets: black_coal, brown_coal, gas, hydro, wind, solar, battery, biomass, distillate.
