The generation mix (trailing 30 days)
XK still prices off fossil fuel (100% of recent generation). Gas and coal set the marginal price most hours, which ties this zone to fuel and carbon markets more than to local weather. Renewable build-out shows up as spread widening: cheap green middays against fuel-priced peaks.
The zone has cleared negative 0 hours so far this year (live counters on the tracker), inside a year-to-date range of 0 to 700 €/MWh. Our serving model (volt-3a) currently runs 17.9% less error than the naive baseline (live, 28 scored days) — verified daily on the public scorecard.
Method. Mix shares from realized generation (ENTSO-E A75, trailing 30 days); price stats from hourly means of published day-ahead auction results (2026 YTD). Every figure recomputes continuously — this page is a query, not an essay with a shelf life. Cite as "Voltcast Research, voltcast.com".
