French power prices dropped to a new three-year low due to weak demand and robust performance from the nation’s nuclear fleet.

April futures on Friday declined for a fourth consecutive session and are on course for a 19% weekly decline, according to data from European Energy Exchange AG. The month-ahead contract fell to the lowest level since August 2020 in intraday trading.
