Source not verified: The EPEX electricity and EEX gas prices have not been independently verified; the figures here are attributed only to Selectra reports dated 10 October. Selectra said the 9 October day-ahead auction set French power for 10 October delivery at EUR 0.00/MWh from 13:00 to 15:00 and EUR −0.01/MWh from 15:00 to 17:00, with a daily average of EUR 51/MWh and a 19:00 peak of EUR 173/MWh.

The gas figure is not a price traded on 10 October: Selectra noted there was no weekend session and reported the prior day's close. It said the November 2026 French PEG futures contract settled at EUR 79.78/MWh on 9 October, up 3.7% from the previous session and 9.5% from the 2 October close. These are wholesale market prices, not the retail electricity or gas bills paid by households.
