🚨Wind speeds in🇪🇺Europe are at the lowest in the last 90 years, right when WWII started
💨The phenomenon, which could have something to do with the implications of the climate change on weather patterns, is raising energy costs all over Europe and risks for the wind sector
Share of wind generation produced at day-ahead prices below 1 €/MWh has been up to 25% in 2024 in some location in west coast Finland and mid Sweden. Quite a drastic change from 2021. Norway sticks out from its neighbors, and continues to do so also in our mid-term forecasts.
So you think the big AI players are going to spend $2 trillion on data centres by 2030, like Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman says? Not going to happen.

Norwegians inefficient heating (resistive rather than heat pumps), large EV adoption, large exposure to hourly pricing and large congestion fee income gives some background for the recent move to offer households a state backed fixed price at 34 €/MWh publicnow.com/view/61E8C6FA8…
Estimated electric heating demand in Europe. France at 29 watt per celsius degree and person, almost 5 times more than in Germany.
Central and western Europe would go from 301 to 845 TWh/yr (including hot water) if all achieved same level of electrification as France

Med 1 elområde så lär ju stamnätstarifferna behöva öka med minst motsvarande summa som flaskhalsintäckterna för att finansiera nätförstärkning och omdirigering. "Minst" pga troligen ännu större snedvridning av lokalisering av kraft än nu.
