Weekly Energy Report

May 20, 2025

May 19th, 2025 – Gas and power prices dropped to kick off the week. Cooler-than-usual weather is hanging around through the end of May, keeping demand in check. Now, Friday evening did see a bit of a spike—nearly $200 evaporated during peak hours—but that was a blip. A low wind forecast pushed Day Ahead prices up briefly, but overall, the trend is down.
 
May 16th, 2025 – And looking back, even with the warm temps, the market didn’t panic. Liquidations stayed tame, and prices kept sliding. Forecasts are calling for cooler weather over the next two weeks, and Texas is easing back into seasonal norms. So with no big heatwave and no major surprises, power prices are drifting lower.
