European gas prices rise above €60/MWh in July as gas storage hits its lowest point in years

European gas prices rallied to above €60/MWh again in July and August. The market is tight - gas storage levels are at their lowest point for the month in at least 15 years. EU storage targets now introduce a timing risk: fill storage now and risk high prices in September, or lower the targets and be exposed to potential shortfalls and price spikes in winter? This timing matters for consumers - but also for wind, solar, and BESS assets, which have their revenues boosted by higher gas prices.
