Electricity Prices Soar in the Netherlands

Electricity prices in the Netherlands are hitting record highs Wednesday night, soaring past nine hundred euros per megawatt-hour as Europe’s heatwave spikes demand and wind power dips. France and Germany are also seeing multi-year highs, with Belgium briefly hitting a thousand euros per MWh. With AC running nonstop and renewables offline, prices could climb to over one euro per kilowatt-hour—four times normal summer rates. If you’re on a variable plan, hold off on power-heavy chores like laundry or dishwashing during the peak. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
