Infrastructure is destiny: How grids, pipelines and bottlenecks create price signals

Energy markets are often analysed as abstractions: prices, curves, spreads, marginal costs. Infrastructure appears in these models as a constraint, a background condition that occasionally matters dur

South-East Europe as Europe’s stress test: What the region reveals about the energy transition

South-East Europe does not sit on the periphery of Europe’s energy system. It sits at its edge in a different sense: the edge where constraints bind first, where volatility appears earliest, and where

Gas at the centre: How balancing, LNG, and spark spreads now define power prices

For most of Europe’s electricity-market history, natural gas played a supporting role. It was a reliable, dispatchable fuel that complemented baseload generation and provided peak capacity when needed

Volatility is no longer cyclical: How shocks now propagate across Europe’s energy system

For much of Europe’s post-liberalisation energy history, volatility was understood as a cyclical phenomenon. Prices rose and fell in response to identifiable triggers: cold winters, supply outages, ge

One energy system, three fuels: Why Europe no longer has separate power, gas, and oil markets

For most of the modern history of European energy policy, electricity, natural gas, and oil were treated as adjacent but fundamentally separate domains. They were regulated through different framework

Flexibility without reward: Why southeast Europe balances Europe’s power system but captures none of the value

In the emerging architecture of Europe’s electricity system, flexibility has become the most valuable attribute a power asset can possess. The ability to ramp output quickly, absorb surplus generation

Europe’s variable power system: How wind, solar and nuclear reshaped electricity flows from the EU core to southeast Europe

For most of the past half-century, Europe’s electricity system could be understood through a relatively simple lens. Power was generated close to where it was consumed, national systems were planned a
