Day-ahead wholesale prices, EUR/MWh — reference only, not investment advice, and not a live trading feed.

Great Britain isn't shown: it isn't part of this data source's day-ahead price coverage at all. Spain and Ireland are also left out here — Energy-Charts' own license marks their price zones "internal use only," so they aren't shown on this public page even though their generation data is elsewhere on this site.
