Wholesale #electricityprices in the PJM Interconnection area, covering 67 million people in 13 states, have #surged by nearly 76% due to the high demand from #AIdatacentres. The report warns that the current #powersupply is insufficient to meet this demand, leading to irreversible higher transmission, energy, and capacity market prices. https://gizmodo.com/power-prices-in-eastern-u-s-spike-76-thanks-to-ai-data-centers-2000759230?eicker.news #tech #media #news

Every time it feels like my financial situation is getting better I get slapped in the face with something new. I can't keep taking these blows. How can any company justify a 68% price increase in the last two years? The storage company I use has jacked prices 68% since April last year. How is this justified?

Finnish electricity prices drop below zero.

Electricity prices plunged into negative territory in Finland on Saturday around 11:00. The lowest rate will occur between 15:00 and 16:00 when the price is set to dip to -1.99 cents per kilowatt-hour (KWh). Prices will remain in negative territory until 17:00.

Negative electricity prices occur when production exceeds consumption and producers effectively pay consumers to use electricity.

Sweden ramps up criticism of Berlin in energy price feud https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/news/sweden-ramps-up-criticism-of-berlin-in-energy-price-feud/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #ACER #EbbaBusch #electricityprices #EUinterconnection

@RaymondPierreL3 NEM Pricing is based on the lowest price in the bid stack, required to get the necessary energy dispatched to meet the current demand (it's a forecast, but it's near enough to real time to be actual demand).

Bids are dispatched in merit order - lower bids win.

That's why you often see negative prices in the middle of the day - solar earns renewable energy certificates that have value even if they have to pay to send energy into the grid, so will bid a negative price up to the value they'll earn from the certificate.

That means that nuclear will be bidding at say $300/MWh and won't be dispatched.

They won't be price setting.

Dutton's shiny new nukes will be sitting there, dialled down as low as they go (and they don't go that low), dispatching into negative prices, so having to pay to send energy into the grid.
