Negative Prices and PPAs
In our inaugural episode, our edit of market trends to keep an eye on includes ACER shelving the idea of more PPA templates; increased REMIT reporting requirements; ERCOT planning for big tech to pay for grid updates; and more global energy transition stories attracting our attention followed by an in-depth focus on negative prices and PPAs.This year has seen record levels of negative pricing hours, and the situation could get worse before it gets better. How the risk affects both clean energy sellers and buyers is one of the hottest topics, with many question marks on how the market can balance out the situation. To shed light on this complex issue, Luca sat down with Dominique Hischier, Pexapark's Head of Analysis, to explore the drivers behind the phenomenon and key implications for PPA negotiations.Episode breakdown00:00-Introduction The Pexapark Podcast03:08-Deals & Prices06:22-EnergyTwitter 07:45-Wider Energy World09:24-Interview Negative Prices Links to analysis notes from the episode:EnergyTwitter 1: Solar-plus-wind hybridisation in Spain https://www.20minutos.es/lainformacion/economia-y-finanzas/canibalizacion-precios-dispara-firma-contratos-electricos-combinan-eolica-solar-fotovoltaica-5638835/EnergyTwitter 2: 7/11 PPAs https://www.linkedin.com/posts/luca-pedretti-746ba218_ppas-renewableenergy-711ppa-activity-7247707528933830657-4p6H?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktopNegative prices in PPAs – The state of play in 2024 https://pexapark.com/blog/negative-prices-in-ppas-the-state-of-play-in-2024/ Unlock More PPA Market InsightsRegister for your free Pexapark account to stay updated on the latest energy transition trends.
