The power spot prices remained quite stable in north western Europe yesterday amid forecasts of steady demand, nuclear availability and renewable production. Prices reached 76.30€/MWh on average, +0.14€/MWh day-on-day and ranging from 72.80€/MWh in the Netherlands to 81.14€/MWh in France.
EUAs climbed to a new record high of 44.95€/t yesterday morning in another attempt to break above the psychological 45€/t level, but started to fade after a rather weak auction and dropped at the end of the sessions amid strong pressure from a late fall of equities.
