What happened and why it matters
- Gas prices have nearly doubled in recent weeks — spot gas rose from €30 to €55/MWh
- Spot power jumped 25% from €80 to €100/MWh
- Forward markets are pricing in sustained uncertainty: long-term gas up 41%, long-term power up 13%
- We’ve seen these levels before — but depending on supply disruptions, this can spike further, like it did in 2022
If your energy contracts aren’t structured to absorb these shocks, your budget is exposed. The companies that act now will lock in protection before conditions worsen.
What You’ll Learn
- How the current geopolitical crisis affects your 2026–2028 energy budget
- Hedging instruments and contract structures that protect your downside
- When to lock in forward contracts — and when to wait
- How battery storage and demand flexibility create long-term optionality
- 5 concrete actions you can take this quarter to protect your budget
