Llegan los precios negativos al mercado eléctrico, ¿han venido para quedarse?

One of the biggest news stories of the year in the electricity market is the emergence of negative prices in the pool. The increasing number of zero hours, or negative prices in the market, has caused a significant stir in the sector. That's why, at El Periódico de la Energía (The Energy Newspaper), we wanted to dedicate an entire episode to explaining this phenomenon. A lot of uncertainty has been generated around negative prices, and even, why not say it, some misinformation. At ÓN, we've shed some light on all of this with an unprecedented interview, as our regular contributor, Javier Revuelta, Senior Principal at AFRY, was the main guest in this episode, which we've titled "Negative Prices Arrive in the Electricity Market: Are They Here to Stay?" Revuelta answered this and many other questions, explaining how this situation came about, what the causes of these negative prices were, and, most importantly, what should be done about it by both generators and consumers. Furthermore, Revuelta was joined by two of the top analysts in the electricity market: Francisco Valverde, a consultant specializing in energy markets, and Pedro Cantuel, senior energy analyst at IGNIS. During the discussion, the three participants, along with Ramón Roca, director of El Periódico de la Energía, analyzed other current market trends, such as the resurgence of hydroelectric power, solar generation and photovoltaic installations, and the drop in demand. It is undoubtedly one of the standout episodes of this second season of ÓN, the videopodcast from El Periódico de la Energía, hosted by Ramón Roca and featuring Sandra Acosta.
