How weather shifts demand and load peaks

Temperature is the single biggest short-term driver of electricity demand. In heat, cooling and air-conditioning load rises and pushes the daily peak into the late afternoon and early evening; in cold, electric heating (heat pumps, resistive heaters) lifts the baseline and the morning/evening peaks. At the same time, cloud cover and wind set how much solar and wind generation actually reaches the grid — exactly the demand and generation swings the Stromfee BESS optimizer trades against on the day-ahead market.

Data honesty. The values above are the current temperature plus the day's high and low for the capital, live from Open-Meteo (keyless, free). No forecast of our own is produced and no national power-market rule is asserted. The weather→demand link is a general, verifiable relationship, not a country-specific revenue guarantee.
