Germany went from being a power exporter to a power importer ⚡

Since the closure of their nuclear fleet the import/export balance has shifted drastically

They used to export a lot, while importing little. That trend has reversed

The yearly shift over the last 2 years is 50 TWh 🔌💡

Today our grid saw a sudden drop in wind production, sparking needs for activating large volumes of expensive mFRR up-regulation

The imbalance price rose to 1000 €/MWh for two hours!

Standby power plants ready to cover wrong wind forecasts charges an arm and a leg
