Energy exchanges take on an exporter direction

The energy exchanges of each country fluctuate each year, depending on factors such as exchange capacity, market coupling and the influence of prices. In 2023, the net balance of electricity exchanges between ENTSO-E countries and with neighbouring countries turned out to be an export balance, with almost 20 TWh. The main exporters are France, Sweden and Norway, with export balances of 49 TWh, 29 TWh, and 17 TWh, respectively. Conversely, the largest importer by far is Italy, with 51 TWh of import balance.

These data are based on the criteria of Regulation (EU) No 543/2013, taking into consideration only certain borders, and therefore differ from the data used for the specific case of Spain at the national level, which consider all borders.
