The European power prices climbed above the clean coal costs for today, lifted by forecasts of below normal temperatures strengthening the power demand and limited wind and solar generation. Prices reached 65.33€/MWh on average in Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands, +3.80€/MWh from Friday.
