Negative Pricing Forecasts: What Happens When You Remove Flexibility

Why do power markets experience negative prices, and how does flexibility change the outlook? Montel analyst Josephine Steppat explains negative-price formation and compares Germany-focused scenarios for renewable bidding behaviour, flexible demand and battery storage. The session includes audience questions with Tim Trutti.

What you will learn

• How supply, demand and bidding behaviour can contribute to negative electricity prices.
• How changing assumptions about renewable bidding, flexible demand and batteries affects the modelled results.
• Why the scenario without flexibility is a hypothetical comparison, not a forecast of the most likely outcome.

Who this is for

Relevant to power-market analysts, traders, and teams assessing renewable generation or battery projects.
