Significant price falls in energy, but what lies ahead

Topics explored include:

• The impact on risk premiums – Storage at record highs across Europe for the time of year, demand destruction, energy efficiencies and strong LNG supplies contribute. 
• European energy prices remain high in the global arena, impacting business competitiveness. 
• Despite the cold snap in northern Europe and a tightness in power generation, there is little impact on power prices as we head towards the summer season. 
• Carbon remains high and on the increase, testing technical levels. 
• Risks for the immediate future: Asian LNG demand, the nuclear fleet in France, Russian supplies to Europe when considering LNG volumes, and the impact of hot summers on power generation with multiple risks from droughts across Europe.
