Early system tightness helped by ‘tripping units’ saw Day Ahead prices jumping. Friday Baseload went from £94.50-£99 MWh range to £105/MWh while peaks rose to a high of £134/MWh from £117/MWh closing the day at £132/MWh.

The supply tightness wasn’t helped by the 500MW reduction in the UK-France Interconnector – a reduction which is expected to remain in place early next week
