Gas prices increase and renewable energy production accentuates the disparity in European electricity markets in the second week of March
During the second week of March, prices in the main European electricity markets showed uneven performance, with increases in southern Europe and declines elsewhere. Most markets registered averages above €80/MWh, in a week marked by the highest settlement price of TTF gas futures since February 2025, the highest Brent price since August 2022 and the lowest CO2 price since May, as well as by higher demand and higher renewable energy production, with increases in wind energy production in some markets and records for solar photovoltaic energy production for a March day in the Iberian Peninsula.

From rainfall to the power market, how Spain’s hydrological cycle strongly affects the electricity prices
Heavy winter rainfall in Spain has significantly increased hydro reservoir levels in early 2026, placing them about 50% above the 10-year average. Because hydro reservoirs act as large-scale energy storage, abundant water allows hydro generation to cover more electricity demand, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. As a result, hydrological conditions strongly influence electricity price formation and its dynamic, affecting dispatch decisions and storage strategies.

European energy market prices increased in the first week after the attack on Iran
In the first week of March, prices in most major European electricity markets increased compared to the previous week and most markets reached weekly averages above €80/MWh. Italy and the United Kingdom registered the highest daily price since February 2025. Higher gas prices, as a consequence of the conflict in Iran, supported these increases. TTF gas futures registered the highest settlement price since February 2025, while Brent futures reached their highest level since September 2023.
