121203_wind-turbine-picture-300x200UK baseload and peakload prompt power prices slumped Monday to a fresh four-year low as NBP spot gas prices fell further on comfortable supply, a market source said.


On the OTC market, day-ahead baseload dropped to the lowest value since April 2010 at GBP35.20/MWh, while the peakload next day power price fell to GBP38.85/MWh before the Platts 11:00 BST close on Monday, both shedding more than one pound from Friday’s assessment.


UK spot power prices on the base and peak reached a new four year low on Monday, the weakest since April 6, 2010 when the contracts were assessed at GBP34.50/MWh and GBP38.50/MWh respectively, according to Platts data.
