Electricity demand trends in Europe: Increases across major markets in early January 2025

In the week of January 6, electricity demand increased across all major European electricity markets compared to the previous week. The British market experienced the largest rise, with a 22% increase, followed by Italy and Germany with increases of 18% and 15%, respectively. Other markets, including Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Belgium, also saw demand growth, ranging from 6.1% in Spain to 13% in Belgium. The French market had the smallest growth, at just 1.7%. Most of the markets saw their demand rise for the second consecutive week, with the exception of the Dutch market, where demand decreased.

The increase in demand was partly influenced by higher average temperatures in most of the analyzed markets during the second week of 2025. Temperature increases ranged from 1.3 °C in Germany to 3.6 °C in Spain. However, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Great Britain experienced lower average temperatures, with declines of 0.7 °C, 1.4 °C, and 3.5 °C, respectively.

Looking ahead to the third week of January, AleaSoft Energy Forecasting’s demand forecasts indicate that demand will continue to rise in the Netherlands, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, and Belgium. On the other hand, demand is expected to decrease in Portugal and Great Britain, AleaSoft reports.
