Negative power prices are becoming an increasingly visible feature of Europe’s day ahead electricity markets. They occur when expected supply exceeds forecast demand and wholesale prices fall below zero.

This phenomenon has existed for several years, but its frequency and geographic reach have grown sharply in certain European markets since 2023.
