SUMMARY

Prices were down at the NBP during the past week as the warm weather across Europe helped reduce demand as well as allowing the continent to build up much need storage levels.

According to data from National Gas, system demand totalled 185.5mcm on Friday, a decrease of 9.7mcm when compared to the previous gas-day as temperatures held above seasonal norms.

Furthermore, the 14-day weather forecast suggests that mild demand fundamentals are expected to persist well into May, anticipated until at least Sunday 11th May, amid an expected rebound in wind generation.

On the storage front, EU shippers appear to have made progress in addressing the deficit compared to last year.

Since the beginning of April, aggregate reserves among member states have risen from 34.29% on 1st April to 38.41% as of Saturday. This has slightly narrowed the gap compared to last year (61.70 mcm), which may be instilling some degree confidence in the region’s ability to replenish facilities over the next few months in preparation for the blocs first winter without any Russian pipeline natural gas imports.

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!
