EU Energy Outlook - update Q2 - 2025 - programme

Introduction to the model behind or long-term Power Price Scenarios

  • Central Europe (Power 2 Sim)

  • Nordics (EMPS)

The storyline behind the different Variants

  • 'Central, Tension and GoHydrogen' in Central Europe

  • Assumptions for the Nordics

Updates to additional assumptions and input parameters

  • Fuel and carbon price curves (TTF, coal, EUA)

  • Demand growth and electrification (EVs, heat pumps, data centres)

  • Renewable build rates, capex and constraints (onshore/offshore wind, solar)

  • Firm capacity changes: nuclear lifetimes, coal/gas retirements, CCS readiness

  • Interconnector additions and grid bottlenecks

Results: European power prices up to 2065

  • Country-level baseload and peak price paths across scenarios

  • Wind and solar capture prices and cannibalisation effects

  • Volatility and shape: seasonal swings, hourly extremes, scarcity events

  • Spark/dark spreads and implications for CCGT/coal dispatch

Questions and answers

  • Model calibration, validation, and data sources

  • How and why the scenarios differ; when to use each

  • Treatment of negative prices and scarcity pricing

  • Nordic hydrology sensitivities and reservoir operations
