SUMMARY

Gas prices dropped again this week with the Winter 25 front-season contract closing just north of the year-to-date low (recorded on 29th April) as markets await the much-anticipated Russia-US talks.

The return of Russian pipeline flows to Central Europe via the Nord stream pipeline may well be discussed as part of concessions but its reactivation appears very unlikely due to several pieces of EU legislation introduced since the pipeline was damaged and shutdown in 2022.

A combination of cheaper gas and strengthening wind generation promoted further drops towards the end of the week.

The high temperatures across Northwest Europe are expected to ease over the next few days, easing cooling demand in the continent and paving the way for higher French export capacity.

However, uncertainty around how long temperatures will hold nearer to seasonal norms may be lending support to the near curve and limiting further downside.

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!
