357,521,500 € for 710,451 MWh that stayed in the country works out at 503.23 € per megawatt-hour, in a month that averaged 147.87.

  • Energy that stayed, at the month's average price −105,055,834 -29.4%
  • What came in arrived above that average 241,156,234 67.5%
  • What went out left below it 221,421,100 61.9%

The first line is energy the country needed and got. The other two — 462,577,334 € together — come not from how much moved but from when: cheap hours to sell in, expensive hours to buy in. That is the price of a timing mismatch, not a loss.

Official validation AWAITING OFFICIAL ANRE DATA

Physical cross-border flows and commercial electricity trades measure different phenomena. ANRE data is shown as an independent official benchmark and should not be interpreted as an exact reconciliation.

All months, every border

Not an invoice. Cross-border electricity is not sold country to country: the markets are coupled and the physical flow is the outcome of a shared auction. These figures value the measured flow at this zone's own day-ahead price, so both directions can be compared on the same scale.

Flows are measured, quarter-hour by quarter-hour; hourly borders are spread across the four quarters they cover, so every megawatt-hour meets the price that was actually in force. Energy entering the country is not the same as energy consumed here — some of it passes through.

What balancing cost, in the last 24 hours

The source for this country does not publish this dataset. Nothing is estimated in its place.

Who consumes: the base, the work rhythm, the day

An estimate from the shape of the consumption curve, not a measurement by customer category — that is not published in real time. Three parts: what never stops, what runs in shifts on working days, what switches on during the day.

archive up to 19/10/2026, 07:00:00

The base, non-stop
72,738MW
67.3% of the week's average · the Sunday-night floor: fridges, servers, installations that never stop
The work rhythm
15,390MW
14.2% of the week's average · how much more a working night carries than a Sunday night: the shifts
The day
19,918MW
18.4% of the week's average · what exceeds the working-night floor, on average: offices, shops, homes awake

Over the last seven days consumption averaged 108,045 MW and ranged between 77,695 and 133,016 MW.

How it was measured: the median of the 02–05 hours over 8 Sunday mornings (72,738 MW) and over 30 working mornings, Tuesday to Friday (88,128 MW), across the last 8 weeks; the average over the last seven days. The parts are cut from one another in order and add up exactly to the average.

The parts are shapes of the curve, not customer categories: the base holds every household's fridge as well as a plant that never stops; the day holds single-shift factories too. “Industrial” and “household” would be words these data cannot defend.

How we estimated 332 g CO₂/kWh

This is an estimate, not a measurement. There is no official carbon-intensity measurement for this country, so we compute it from the production mix.

Σ(source generation × source factor) / Σ(generation), over positive values, with life-cycle factors.

The factors are life-cycle values — they include construction and fuel, not just combustion. That is why solar, wind and nuclear are not zero. Source: IPCC AR5 WG3, Anexa III, Tabelul A.III.2 (mediane), version 1.
