Energy and prices scheduled for security reasons

The energy scheduled to resolve technical constraints amounted to 10,386 MWh, 6.2 % less than the previous year. Upward energy scheduled accounted for 91.2 % of the total energy.

The energy scheduled to resolve technical constraints of the Daily Base Operating Schedule (PDBF) was 7,789 GWh of upward energy (17 % less than the previous year) and 253 GWh of downward energy (half that of the previous year). The average value of the price of upward energy was 135.8 €/MWh, 80.4 % higher than in 2020, and that of the price of downward energy was 82.8 €/MWh, nearly three times that of 2020. The impact on the average final price of energy was 1.83 €/MWh compared to 1.79 €/MWh the previous year.

The energy scheduled in phase I for resolving technical constraints of the Daily Base Operating Schedule corresponded mainly to combined cycle and coal-fired technologies. The downward energy in phase I was all but negligible.

The energy scheduled for technical constraints in real time totalled 2,345 GWh, slightly more than double the value of the previous year. 71.9 % corresponds to allocations of upward energy and the remaining 28.1 % to downward energy. The impact on the average final price was 1.16 €/MWh compared to 0.33 €/MWh the previous year.
