In parallel, this Friday, July 2, will likely be the second highest value of electrical energy in the history of Spain. It’ll attain the 99.Eight euros per MWh, in response to the knowledge of the designated electrical energy market operator (OMIE). It surpasses the document reached throughout the storm of Filomena, on January 8, of 94.99 euros. Solely surpassed by the 103.76 euros that was reached on January 11, 2002.
