Gas drove European electricity market prices in the fourth week of January, while wind energy pushed them down in Iberia
In the fourth week of January, prices in most major European electricity markets increased compared to the previous week, with daily values above €100/MWh in most sessions. Higher gas prices, whose futures rose above €40/MWh, levels not seen since June 2025, together with lower wind energy production and higher demand in some markets, drove this increase. By contrast, higher wind energy production in the Iberian Peninsula put downward pressure on prices and allowed the MIBEL market to register its lowest daily price since May 2025.

Gas and CO2 prices rose in the third week of January, putting upward pressure on European electricity market prices
In the third week of January, prices in the main European electricity markets registered an upward trend and most of them exceeded €100/MWh as a weekly average, although in many cases they were lower than those of the previous week. On January 17, the Iberian market registered its highest daily price since February 2025. During the week, TTF gas futures reached their highest settlement price since June, CO2 futures reached their highest settlement price since at least late 2023 and Brent futures reached their highest settlement price since early October. Electricity demand increased in most markets, while renewable energy production declined.

European market prices continue to rise in 2026 driven by demand and CO2, while Spain and Italy set renewable energy records
In the second week of January, prices increased in most major European electricity markets compared to the previous week, driven by demand growth, the rise in CO2 prices, whose futures reached their highest settlement price at least since December 2023, and lower renewable energy production in some markets. By contrast, the Iberian market registered the lowest prices for most of the week thanks to the increase in wind energy production, which reached a historic daily record, as well as solar energy production. Italy also registered historic records for wind and photovoltaic energy production for a January day.

European electricity market prices rose in 2025, although they were the second lowest since 2021, in a year of photovoltaic records
In 2025, prices in the main European electricity markets rose until February, fell in spring and stabilised in the second half of the year, with an annual average price above €60/MWh in most markets. Prices increased compared to 2024 due to higher gas and CO2 prices, as well as rising demand and lower wind energy production in some markets. Even so, 2025 prices were the second lowest since 2021. Photovoltaic energy production reached record levels in the main European markets, as did wind energy production in France.

Low temperatures and gas drive European electricity market prices at the start of 2026
In the first week of 2026, prices in the main European electricity markets rebounded after falling on January 1, driven by higher demand and gas prices, together with lower wind energy availability in some markets. At the same time, photovoltaic energy production set new all-time highs for a December day in France and Portugal, and the New Year’s holiday and falling temperatures affected demand in most markets.
