Description
The Merit Order prioritizes the most competitive energy sources but exposes prices to fluctuations in gas and coal markets. This dependency increases market volatility and weakens the balance between supply and demand. Developing storage solutions and flexibility mechanisms is therefore crucial to stabilize markets and control costs. How can energy models be rethought to ensure both price stability and security of supply?
