SUMMARY

The primary source of the increases towards the backend of the week was the cancellation of US-Iran talks in Switzerland, which had been due to take place on Friday.

The Winter 26 front-season climbed 3.7%, halting the bearish streak that had persisted across most of the week; nevertheless, it still managed to hold onto the bulk of its recent sell-off, closing 9% lower week-on-week.

For market participants, the derailment of talks due to continued military operations in Lebanon signals a prolonged disruption to the reopening of the vital Strait of Hormuz supply route, given Iran’s explicit stance that the closure will remain in place until tangible progress toward a peace deal is achieved.

Baseload power prices also increased, though upward momentum remained comparatively muted.

Fundamentally, a sharp contraction in wind generation squeezed renewable supply, dragging its share of total demand down to under 20% by the end of the week. To compensate, gas-fired CCGT generation surged to almost 60% on Friday, absorbing the renewable shortfall to capture a dominant 34.2% share of the power mix.

Say 'No' to cold calling on business energy

Unfortunately, business electricity and business gas customers in the UK are bombarded with unsolicited cold calls on a daily basis.

This unscrupulous approach does not offer the business energy customer an impartial view on the market and the price offered is more often 20-30% above the current retail price for electricity or gas.

At Energy Advice Line we strongly advise customers to not accept these offers and follow our simple steps to ensure that they are not locked into an uncompetitive contract.

Join our cold calling campaign here, and spread the word to say 'no' to cold calling on business energy!
