| Gas prices recorded gains yesterday, taking direction from a rebound in oil and a recovery on the overall energy market. Carbon was the only market to trade sideways, while the front of the curve was pushed higher by an undersupplied system. | Power prices climbed higher on Monday, with the larger increases displayed towards the back of the curve. Tighter gas supply limited losses on the prompt but the contract managed to close lower due to a reduced demand outlook for today. |

| The UK gas system is oversupplied this morning as Norwegian flows have improved and demand is down. Oil & carbon markets remain slightly bullish, while coal is flat resulting in higher prices on the near curve and minimal movement further out. | The power curve displays mixed movement this morning, with most contracts trading sideways. Oil and gas have opened slightly higher, while a stronger wind generation outlook for tomorrow has weighed on the prompt. |
