Another Power Squeeze?
Plugged In: the energy news podcast
In the third episode of our energy crisis miniseries, we turn to Europe’s power markets, where rising gas prices, renewed volatility and political uncertainty are once again putting the electricity system under pressure.
Although the current crisis is not a repeat of 2022, it is exposing fresh vulnerabilities; from low hydro levels in the Nordics and gas storage concerns in western Europe, to growing questions over market design, interconnectors and the pace of the energy transition.
So how resilient is Europe’s power system this time around? And what happens when geopolitical shocks collide with an increasingly complex power market?
Richard is joined by Montel analysts Jean-Paul Harreman, Fintan Devenney and Priyanka Shinde to unpack the impact across Europe; from battery revenues and price spikes to liquidity risks, policy shifts and the regions most exposed in the months ahead.
