The Belgian electricity price has risen several times to a new record high in recent days. The so-called day-ahead price of Belgian electricity had even reached an average of 700.41 euros per megawatt hour yesterday. today the price drops to an average of 600.25 euros per megawatt hour. The price is still at an exceptionally high level.
Due to record prices for natural gas, several French nuclear power stations that are shut down and low water levels, the electricity price has skyrocketed. In addition, there is a lack of wind in continental Europe and the current high temperatures, which means that air conditioning and fans, among other things, are working overtime and the energy demand is rising.
