In the fourth week of September, weekly prices increased in most of the main European electricity markets, almost all exceeding €60/MWh. The arrival of autumn brought colder temperatures that boosted demand in most markets, in addition to a decrease in photovoltaic production. Wind energy production also fell in several markets. In contrast, wind energy production increased in the Iberian Peninsula, and demand fell in Spain, Portugal, and Italy, which led to lower prices in these markets.

SolarPower Europe has published a new study with Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE), revealing that the cost gap between Net-Zero Industry Act-compliant modules and Chinese imported modules can be reduced to below 10% with the right urgent policies. The report highlights the risk that, without additional measures, NZIA provisions could support solar supply chain diversification without boosting European solar manufacturers, as there remains a significant cost difference (2.2 to 5.8 €ct/Wp) between NZIA-compliant EU-made and NZIA-compliant non-EU modules.
