The Background of Energy Quantified

Archived blog post. This blog post has been transferred from our previous blogging platform. Links and images may not work as intended.

We are three power market professionals, with 40 years of combined experience in pioneering, building and maintaining well-known analysis platforms. Make no mistake, we feel privileged to have worked with so many exceptional and smart people.

But, as these businesses grew, an increasing amount of time was spent on management and making technical compromises – not on the things we love, which is innovating and building new stuff. So one day an idea emerged: What if one could start all over, use only the best available technology and move with the speed and agility only enjoyed when travelling light?

Long story made short, that is exactly what we have embarked upon. We named it Energy Quantified.

French nuclear production is expected to reach its lowest production level since 1991 this year. This is mainly because of extended technical inspections and a large number of outages, but reduced production during the heat waves this summer has also played a part. By the end of August, we see that 25 out of 56 French nuclear plants are out of operation, resulting in a production output of 26 GWh/h – which is about 10 GWh/h lower than for the same month last year. EDF has announced production targets of 280-300 TWh for 2022, and 300-330 TWh for 2023. Based on these targets, EQ has studied the power balance outlook for 2022/23 and the nuclear production estimates for the winter.

The European Continent has experienced an extraordinarily hot and dry summer. As a result, there has been a lot of focus on reduced nuclear capacity due to higher river temperatures and low flow rates. In this blog post, EQ will focus on the hydropower situation across the Alp region – having hit the lowest production levels in 25 years this summer. For reference, the Alp region includes Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, and Italy with an accumulated yearly production level of 187 TWh.
