Monthly LWAP minus simple average price (LWAP = sum(price×load) / sum(load)). Positive bars (green) mean expensive hours carry more load; negative bars (blue) signal cheap, high-generation hours dominate demand.
Each point is one hour (sampled, up to 1 500 per year). X = total system load (MW), Y = day-ahead price (€/MWh). Colour = month. A positive slope confirms demand-driven pricing; a flat or negative slope suggests renewable-driven price suppression.
Average total system load (MW) by hour of day and calendar month for the selected country and year. Morning and evening demand peaks are clearly visible; winter months show structurally higher load.
| Period △ | Avg Price | LWAP | LWAP − Avg | Correlation | Avg Load |

Rows where |LWAP − Avg| > 10 €/MWh are highlighted. Click column headers to sort. Filtered by selected country and year.
Volume proxy: Total system load (A65) represents demand on the grid, not traded volume. It is the best publicly available proxy for market demand pressure.
LWAP: Load-Weighted Average Price weights each hourly price by the load in that hour. LWAP > simple average means expensive hours carry more load (demand-driven); LWAP < simple average means cheap hours carry more load (renewable surplus).
Scatter sampling: Up to 1 500 hourly observations per year are shown; sampled randomly for performance.
