Overall flows were comfortable which helped to balance the system and keep a lid on near curve prices. | Power prices were pushed higher by an increase in gas, coal and oil on Thursday.

| The UK gas system is slightly oversupplied this morning, although Norwegian maintenance continues to limit imports. However, oil continues to rise at the start of the session which has contributed to small gains on the gas curve. | Energy markets continue to take direction from bullish oil, with gains also displayed on feedstock and emission markets. Power prices have mirrored this upward trajectory at the start of the session. |
