| European gas markets rebounded yesterday after Friday’s sell off. In the UK, gas output dropped to 88cm/day in the morning, which led to a quickly undersupplied UK system. | Spot prices were again strong with an upcoming dip in wind power supply and a decrease in nuclear availability. On the far curve, EUA prices moved down sharply as the return of full auction volumes meant there was more supply available. |

| An undersupplied UK system, low stock levels and other factors should continue to support European gas spot prices today. Strong coal and oil prices should continue to be supportive for the far curve. | With coal prices opening higher, and gas prices looking bullish, they should be supportive of power prices. Overall, a stable to bullish outlook for power today. |
