Is storage the missing piece in France’s power system?
Market Analysis

3 hours ago

France’s electricity system is shifting from an aging nuclear and hydro backbone to rapid solar growth, creating deeper midday troughs and price volatility. Flexibility is essential as negative price hours rise and interconnectors cannot always clear surplus power. Battery energy storage is scaling from ancillary services toward day-ahead and intraday arbitrage, improving reliability and returns.
