France’s Integration into PICASSO – Early Insights and Market Impact

France’s integration into PICASSO: early insights and market impact

Get a clear, data-driven walkthrough of how Montel builds and stress-tests long-term European power price scenarios. The session explains the modelling stack—Power2Sim for Central Europe and EMPS for the Nordics—then introduces storyline variants (“Central”, “Tension”, “GoHydrogen”), highlights the latest assumption updates, and presents price paths and capture prices out to 2065, followed by Q&A takeaways.

France’s integration into PICASSO: early insights and market impact overview

  • Introduction to the modelling approach and geographical scope (Central Europe & Nordics).

  • Model deep dives: Power2Sim (thermal/market fundamentals) and EMPS (hydro-dominant Nordics).

  • Scenario storyline variants: Central, Tension, and GoHydrogen—key drivers and use cases.

  • Updates to core assumptions: fuels and carbon, demand/electrification, renewables build, firm capacity, storage, interconnectors, policy/market design.

  • Results to 2065: baseload/peak trajectories, wind/solar capture prices, volatility and curtailment, spreads and cross-border signals, plus key sensitivities.

  • Q&A highlights: applying outputs to PPAs, hedging, asset valuation, and portfolio strategy.

Who should watch?

  • Energy traders, analysts and risk managers needing robust long-term scenarios.

  • Utilities, generators, IPPs and developers evaluating investments, PPAs and asset optimisation.

  • Corporate buyers and portfolio managers aligning 24/7 procurement with capture prices.

  • Banks, lenders and advisors underwriting projects and testing financing assumptions.

  • Policy and regulatory teams tracking structural drivers in EU power markets.
