According to AleaSoft Energy Forecasting, in the third week of June, prices in most major European electricity markets increased compared to the previous week. The main causes of this rise were the increase in average temperatures, which favored the increase in demand in most markets, as well as the generalized decrease in wind energy production and the decrease in solar energy production in most markets. Solar energy production only increased in Spain, where photovoltaic energy registered an alltime production record on June 21.
During the week of June 17, solar energy production increased compared to the previous week in the Spanish market for the second consecutive week. On this occasion, the increase in production, which includes solar photovoltaic energy and solar thermoelectric energy, was 6.1%. In the case of solar photovoltaic energy, the Spanish market registered an alltime daily production record on Friday, June 21, reaching a generation of 198 GWh.
The rest of the main European markets registered decreases in solar energy production compared to the second week of June. The French, Italian and German markets continued the downward trend of the previous week, this time with decreases of 14%, 5.9% and 1.2%, respectively. In Portugal, solar energy production fell by 12%.
According to AleaSoft Energy Forecasting’s solar energy production forecasts for the week of June 24, in Germany and Spain, production will increase compared to the previous week. However, Italy will maintain the downward trend of the past two weeks.
