PowerCast Market Recap: October’s Storms, Prices and Battery Opportunities
October marked the start of the winter season and brought a sharp mix of named storms, cold snaps and shifting demand.

They explore record levels of BM utilisation for batteries, fewer negative price periods, and why rising evening peaks are creating stronger discharge opportunities as winter sets in.
