Neighbouring zones

Comparison of interconnected market zones

Great Britain is linked to its neighbours through interconnectors (France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland/SEM, the Nordics and Denmark). Since the end of the Brexit transition period these interconnectors are no longer in EU day-ahead coupling, so GB clears its own Day-Ahead price — the wider the price gap between zones, the greater the value of cross-border arbitrage.
