Press Release
Join the New Solarplaza Summit to Get a Grasp on A Power Market in Flux
Amsterdam, The Netherlands - 27 November 2024 - Solarplaza is excited to announce the Solarplaza Summit - Future Electricity Price Europe, taking place on 27 November 2024 at the KIT in Amsterdam. This full-day conference will convene industry leaders to delve into the key drivers and developments impacting European electricity prices over the coming decade.
In an era marked by unprecedented volatility in energy markets, understanding the factors influencing electricity prices has never been more critical. In a market without subsidies, the volatility and uncertainties around power prices present both challenges and opportunities for the business cases of solar PV plants. It is crucial for developers, investors, asset owners, and financiers to understand the factors impacting their business cases. Recent records, such as Germany's highest and lowest hourly electricity prices within the same year, underscore the market's instability. This volatility arises from a confluence of factors and is not only related to the accelerating adoption of renewable energy sources.
The increasing share of intermittent renewables, such as solar and wind, significantly impacts price stability due to their variable nature. Other impacting factors are the sustained growth in power demand driven by electrification in general and e-mobility in particular, the growth of energy storage, new grid investments, interconnection and flexibility developments, and the phase-out of coal and uncertainties around nuclear asset growth. Additionally, regulatory changes and market design innovations are reshaping the energy landscape. Geopolitical events and energy policies directly influence the natural gas market, a key player in Europe’s energy mix. The future of natural gas, alongside the development of a more integrated European power market, will be pivotal in shaping electricity prices. Understanding these dynamics is essential for stakeholders to navigate the evolving energy landscape effectively.
Key Highlights:
Why Attend?
