Electricity pricesBusiness cases for interconnectors are generally (if not always) underpinned by pricedifferentials between two markets.
Price differentials generally need to be material and forecast to be sustained overthe longer term (15-20 years plus). Short term price differentials are also relevantand can be driven by time zone and generation mix differences.
Click the logo below to see the latest electricity price summary reports from theEuropean Commission. Numerous commercial electricity exchanges can provideaccess to detailed, real-time prices and analysis for Europe and worldwide.
