| The market has seen yesterday’s weakness resume, linked to news that the Framatome reactor may not require immediate maintenance, easing fears of the French nuclear fleet being weakened for Winter. Yearly planned maintenance is ongoing at some major facilities and terminals including Easington, resulting in Langeled nominating zero flows today. | Power contracts reversed yesterday’s gains this morning, as the losses within the NBP weighed on the market; however, the potential outages in the French nuclear fleet may see prices rise. Weaker trading in the wider energy complex is also having a negative impact. |
