Power exchanges are constantly innovating and developing to respond to the transformation of the electricity market.
The electricity market is not broken. Instead, it continues to function as expected, despite the ongoing energy crisis.
For the first time, the price of electricity in the day-ahead market in Finland and Sweden turned negative for a few hours in February 2020 and again in July. On the road towards a climate-neutral power system, it is likely that electricity prices will turn negative again for a few occasional hours.
The transmission system is designed with the objective of maintaining a large transfer capacity so it is not necessary to limit power transmission. This ensures that there is a single price area in Finland.
