Please see a short summary of pricing below:
Yesterday we saw the “Single Imbalance Price” (SIP) averaged £171.5/MWh and ranged between £47.0/MWh and £1,400/MWh.
The highest accepted offer was £1,600.0/MWh from EDF’s West Burton B unit 3.
This morning, day-ahead gas traded 4.00p/th higher at 61.75p/th.
There were unplanned Norwegian gas outages at Troll and Kristin fields. LNG supply is around 60mcm with 3 cargoes now scheduled to arrive in the UK over the next 10 days.
“We have seen a general move up across NBP gas contracts this morning and this is despite a return to warmer temperatures forecast on Monday. We are also flagging strength in the power market curve contracts as a fixing opportunity for our PPA clients. It’s a good time to be a generator.”
