POWER
CWE front-month power prices are tracking a weekly decline this week, amid losses in EU gas and carbon prices. The Germany-France October power spread is currently at the widest since 14 August.
- Nordic Base Power OCT 24 up 4% at 21.85 EUR/MWh
- France Base Power OCT 24 down 1.5% at 61 EUR/MWh
- Germany Base Power OCT 24 down 0.2% at 78.16 EUR/MWh
- EUA DEC 24 down 0.3% at 65.23 EUR/MT
- TTF Gas OCT 24 up 1.4% at 35.675 EUR/MWh
- Rotterdam Coal OCT 24 up 1.2% at 113.8 USD/MT
- TTF has been holding on to gains today but remains within the recent €34.67/MWh to €36.34/MWh range. Muted demand and high underground and floating storage are helping to ease tight supply fears amid curtailed pipeline supplies to Europe ahead of the winter heating season.

- Large parts of central Europe and NW Europe including parts of Poland, Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Austria are preparing for heavy rainfall this weekend.
